That Was Just Your Life

Like a siren in my head that I was placed to repeat Like a blind man that was shoved into the speeding driver's seat Like a face that learned to speak, when all it knew was how to fight Like a misery that keeps me from just going out astray Like an illness that I'm about to waken from its state Contradiction A premonition Now are the aids who I deny I deny I blind my eyes and try to force it all into place I stitch them up, see not my fall from grace I blind my eyes, I hardly feel it passing me by I open just in time to say goodbye Almost like your life Almost like your endless fight Cursed, the day is long Realize you don't belong Disconnect somehow Never stop complaining now Almost like your fight And there it went Almost like your life Like a bullet, keeps on bleeding to remind me not to think Like a raging river, drowning when I only need a drink Like a poison that I swallow, but I want the world to die Like a release from a prison that I didn't know I was in Like a fight to live the present, I pictured it like this Like a general without a mission until the wars start again Start again I blind my eyes and try and force it all into place I stitch them up, see not my fall from grace I blind my eyes, I hardly feel it passing me by I open just in time to say goodbye Almost like your life Almost like your endless fight Cursed, the day is long Realize you don't belong Disconnect somehow Never stop complaining now Almost like your fight And there it went Almost like your life Like a touch from hell I feel how hot that it can get if you get caught Like a strike from heaven that turns that key That brings you straight down to your knees Like a touch from hell I feel how hot that it can get if I get caught Like a strike from heaven to reprieve That brings you straight down to your knees Almost like your life Almost like your endless fight Cursed, the day is long Realize you don't belong Disconnect somehow Never stop complaining now Almost like your fight And there it went Almost like your life That was just your life
