I woke up early evening and I knew I was alone. Did the sun come up or did it rain again I’ll never know. I felt the acid in my stomach rise above my throat as I dialled. There was a message from my mother. From about 7a.m. said I’ve forgotten what you sound like. And I’m wonderin’ how you’ve been. I cried myself to asleep back on the floor. Unconscious in denial. CHORUS:. Life is just a little part of what the world will do. To get it’s point across it beats you ‘til you’re black & blue. And decides just when you’re in or when you’re out. ‘Cause when you’re through you’re through. There’s a cafי just ‘round the corner from the home I call a house. I sit and play sudoku ‘til I figure some sh1t out. I drink the day’s first coffee and I smoke the last cigarette of my life. And I’m wondering out of all the crazy places that I’ve been. Would it ever be as good as sittin’ here just with a friend?. Where it's always understood it might be time to switch the coffee to wine. CHORUS:. Life is just a little part of what the world will do. To get it’s point across it beats you ‘til you’re black & blue. And decides just when you’re in or when you’re out. ‘Cause when you’re through you’re through. Yeah Yeah.. Whoaaaah Ohhhh.. Whoaaaaahhhhhh. Ohhhh Ohhh Ohhh.. Oh.. Janis sings to me just like she’s sitting by my side. And I wonder just how many times she sat like me and cried. I’ve made it past the age of twenty-seven so there’s no use in dyin’. And my friends have asked the question:. “Baby will you be okay?”. I wanna tell them yes ‘cause I know that’s what I should say. But I’ve got no crystal ball and I can’t bring myself to lie and why should I?. Hey yeahhhh - I think that…... Life is just a little part of what the world will do. It’s brings us to the brink and beats the sh1t right outta you. And decides just when you’re in or when you’re out. ‘Cause when you’re through you’re through. Yeah Yeah Yeah. Life is just a little part of what the world will do. It’s brings us to the brink and beats the sh1t right outta you. And decides just when you’re in or when you’re out. When you’re through you’re through. Ayyye Oh.. I guess I’m through. Mmmmm. When you’re through you’re through.
