I woke up on early evening and I knew I was alone
Did the sun come up or did it rain again, I´ll never know
I felt the acid in my stomach rise above my throat as I dialled

There was a message from my mother
From about 7a.m. said I´ve forgotten what you sound like
And I´m wonderin´ how you´ve been
I cried myself to asleep back on the floor
Unconscious in denial

Life is just a little part of what the world will do
To get it´s point across it beats you ‘til you´re black & blue
And decides just when you´re in or when you´re out
‘Cause when you´re through you´re through

There´s a cafe around the corner from a home I call a house
I sit and play sudoku ‘til I figure some shit out
I drink the day´s first coffee and I smoke the last cigarette of my life

And I´m wondering out of all the crazy places that I´ve been
Would it ever be as good as sittin´ here just with a friend?
Where it´s always understood it might be time, to switch the coffee to the wine

Life is just a little part of what the world will do
To get it´s point across it beats you ‘til you´re black & blue
And decides just when you´re in or when you´re out
‘Cause when you´re through you´re through

Yeah, Yeah.
Whoaaaah, Ohhhh.
Whoaaaaahhhhhh

Ohhhh, Ohhh, Ohhh.
Oh.

Janis sings to me just like she´s sitting by my side
And I wonder just how many times she sat like me and cried
I´ve made it past the age of twenty-seven so there´s no use in dyin´

And my friends have asked the question:
“Baby, will you be okay?”
I wanna tell them yes ‘cause I know that´s what I should say
But I´ve got no crystal ball and I can´t bring myself to lie and why should I?

Hey, yeahhhh - I think that…..
Life is just a little part of what this world will do
It´s bring us to the brink and beats the shit right outta you
And decides just when you´re in or when you´re out
‘Cause when you´re through you´re through

Yeah, Yeah, Yeah
Life is just a little part of what the world will do
It´s brings us to the brink and beats the sh1t right outta you
And decides just when you´re in or when you´re out
When you´re through you´re through

Ayyye, Oh.
I guess I´m through
Mmmmm
When you´re through, you´re through.
