Lyrics:
I downed a shot of alcohol and realized
That living is just continuing to realize how lonely you are
Regardless of how many are or aren’t around you
The little me inside myself was always lonely
Why isn’t there an antonym for loneliness?
It might be because there isn’t a moment in one’s life when they aren’t lonely
Even though your surroundings may seem incredibly noisy
Moments when you have to be alone will always come back to find you
Yeah that’s a life
We live in danger,
In return for being able to see this beautiful world
Not even bulletproof vests, street lamps, sturdy cars
Can perfectly protect us from death
From the moment everyone is born
Everyone is guaranteed to die, which makes life more beautiful
Like how light needs shadow to truly be light
Like how the sun shines after a rough storm
Life, fall in love
Life is getting hurt by other people
And becoming lonely with the wind
We wanna be right
But always wrong
Were we born in order to be wrong
Is life perhaps this way
(We’ll never know what tomorrow will be like)
(Even if this building collapses, we can’t avoid it)
We tryna be bright
But always dark
Even if you feel you’ve lived long enough
You’ll still never know
The world is just one page of décalcomanie
A punk I thought was on my side can turn into an even more vicious enemy
Like folding paper, relationships become a done deal when you fold them
In no time, they’re on the other side mocking me
Completely the same, but child, there’s no need to be mad
In front of money, some parents don’t even have kids
We have to burn ourselves up, because the world is so cold
So that no one can freeze us, even if I may hurt myself
Perhaps there is no such thing as right or wrong
But what we always ended up learning was that
Stepping on, holding back, erasing and hating someone
Fuck all the peace and love I know that those are the enemies of success
As if it’s so obvious
Those quotes that I hear being used like logic
Make me even sadder. But so what, even I am all talk
I am merely a breeze that passes someone by
Life, fall in love
Life is getting hurt by other people
And becoming lonely with the wind
We wanna be right
But always wrong
Were we born in order to be wrong
Is life perhaps this way
Were we born so we could live
Were we born so we could die
Were we born so we could live
Were we born so we could die
Are we living in order to die
Are we dying in order to live
The name-tag attached to my name
Is it life
Or death
Who knows..
Life, fall in love
Life is getting hurt by other people
And becoming lonely with the wind
We wanna be right
But always wrong
Were we born in order to be wrong
Is life perhaps this way
(We’ll never know what tomorrow will be like)
(Even if this building collapses, we can’t avoid it)
We tryna be bright
But always dark
Even if you feel you’ve lived long enough
You’ll still never know
