wye oak - lifer lyrics
[verse 1]
you’re worried i’ve given up
have lost direction for the cause
have traded truth for confidence
went back on all my promises
[verse 2]
i am not old but i’ve become
afraid of things i never was
and stumbling on without a pause
can only go so long
[chorus 1]
did you say that i was the lifer?
did you say that life could be better?
[verse 3]
it seems to those who know me best
my luck is wild and in excess
i don’t know why some suffer so
and others never fear to go
[verse 4]
i won’t reduce myself to air
undo myself for your affair
i’ve shown you everything i am
you choose or not to understand
[bridge]
there is a logic to the rule
the end is kind, the mean is cruel
i have to love the life i make
make up for all the sp-ce i take
[verse 5]
mistaken for an oversight
the absence of my appet-te
the source of all my arrogance
i left it up to chance
[chorus 2]
i believed that i was the lifer
i believed that life could be better
[verse 6]
i want to see you rise again
to see life in your eyes again
to feel your pulse is beating strong
to prove all of us wrong
[chorus 3]
will you say that you are the lifer?
do you think that life could be better?
will you say that i am the lifer?
do you think that life could be better?
