The waters crashing down through this old houses ceiling That was when you called and all the tears they started streaming It poured and it rained for four goddamn nights Of course the drive was scary but the worst was yet to come And what a brutal sight at least I saw you breathing your last I think it helped me with the healing when the feelings relaxed Don't get me wrong that moment haunts me to this day but it'll pass We're making do me and mum We're making do me and mum
And it's all the same advice Like hold your head up high The holidays aren't gonna be nice But I don't care I'm gonna do you right
Yeah, I'll take that shit in my stride Yeah, I might not win but I'll try And if I get pushed to the side Well, that's life, yeah, that's life, yeah, that's life
And that's what all the people say And to be frank, I feel like nothing goes my way I still believe the mellow days won't be the same I hope your feeling better in your resting place You always said the whole of the moon could be mine if I just Put my head down and made the sound that you imagined for us Well, mum still comes to every show, she's VHSing for ya And dad, I hope you hear this song we think you'd love the chorus
And it's all the same advice Like hold your head up high The holidays aren't gonna be nice But I don't care I'm gonna do you right
Yeah, I'll take that shit in my stride Yeah, I might not win but I'll try And if I get pushed to the side Well, that's life, yeah, that's life, yeah, that's life Yeah, I won't pretend that I'm fine I spend my nights loosing my mind But for once I'm feeling alright Well, that's life, yeah, that's life, yeah, that's life
Loose a job, loose a friend, loose a lover, that's life Miss your bus, miss your rent miss your brother, that's life I lost you, I lost you, I lost you but I'm fine And it rained for four goddamn nights
Yeah, I'll take that shit in my stride Yeah, I might not win but I'll try And if I get pushed to the side Well, that's life, yeah, that's life, yeah, that's life Yeah, I won't pretend that I'm fine I spend my nights loosing my mind But for once I'm feeling alright Well, that's life, yeah, that's life, yeah, that's life
