graham kendrick - that's life lyrics
[verse 1]
the street is so quiet only cars whisper by
past the row upon row of lighted windows
a queue at a bus stop stand in silent surrender
breathing clouds into the frosty mid+winter
and behind every front door the play for today
in enacted with or without feeling
and behind every face in another unfinished
life story in a paperback binding
[pre+chorus]
the weary are trying to sleep in the darkness
and push the day away
the art of survival more urgent than the
art of arrival at some destiny
[chorus]
how we love to be lied to
to believe what we went to
to be led to the slaughter house
bravely smiling
to surrender to the irony
the mystery and the agony
with a shrug of the shoulders
much as to say
well that’s life
well that’s life
well that’s life
[verse 2]
so we walk through the garbage fields
ripening for harvest
and we all pretend not to see
but we ploughed with the devil
now a hand is on the sickle
and the whirlwinds are carrying us easy
[vamp]
this is life in the queue for the world’s greatest show
but by the time you got in it has ended
and you’ll never get out without blood on your ticket
there is only one door that’s marked “exit”
[chorus]
how we love to be lied to
to believe what we went to
to be led to the slaughter house
bravely smiling
to surrender to the irony
the mystery and the agony
with a shrug of the shoulders
much as to say
well that’s life
well that’s life
well that’s life
