Aslan - Pretty Thing lyrics

rate me

PRETTY THING:<br />

All these people hanging round<br />

Waiting for the world to change<br />

All this pressure coming down<br />

Life is not a pretty thing<br />

Standing in the pouring rain<br />

Lonely eyes and soaking skin<br />

Wishing it was yesterday<br />

I say life is not a pretty thing<br />

Trying hard to make it work<br />

Losing all my faith in God<br />

Shaking hands shaking heads<br />

Why, please tell me why<br />

Is all this sorrow and suffering<br />

Still going on<br />

All they ever wanted was a chance to live<br />

Sometimes I just wonder<br />

Can they forgive, how can they still forgive<br />

All these people running scared<br />

Seen so many times before<br />

Life is something to be shared<br />

Life is not a pretty thing<br />

I can't see the sense in this<br />

Where has all the feeling gone<br />

Woke up this morning with a pain in my head<br />

Tried to work it out but I went back to bed<br />

This ain't the way that it's supposed to be<br />

This is not the day<br />

This is not me<br />

Half my life is wasted the rest does not exist<br />

They're writing to papers<br />

They're making out lists<br />

Searching for reasons why everythings a mess<br />

Why we sit and take it is anybodys guess<br />

And oh, life is not a pretty thing<br />

Life is not pretty, pretty<br />

Life is not a pretty thing<br />

Pretty thing<br />

Pretty thing<br />

When you're shaking hands and breaking heads
