Sam Roberts - This Wreck Of A Life lyrics
rate me
You know that bad luck will eat you up When's it gonna end? I twisted everything I could Out of words In real life my colours never blend When I was a boy I said to myself That I'd never lean on anyone else Oh, but I was wrong Yeah I was wrong And my mother took me by the hands and then Oh, oh how I prayed That the good Lord would come and take me away From this mess of a life that I'm in And I fell to my knees oh and I cried As the lighting rose up from the earth to the sky In this wreck of a life that I'm in In this mess of a life that I'm in Come on you've got a lot to give A lot to live for And hope it all gets better You twisted everything you can out of anything I know it's gonna get better And I'm so sick and tired of lying around We're all waiting for someone to light up this town Oh, it won't be long It won't be long And I know I should have left town but I stayed Oh how I prayed That the good Lord would come and take me away From this mess of a life that I'm in And I fell to my knees oh and I cried As the lighting rose up from the earth to the sky In this wreck of a life that I'm in In this mess of a life that I'm in Oh and it feels like I'm writing a book and I can't get inspired Sometimes It seems that I'm breathing in smoke and my lungs are so tired Oh well I'll just sleep it all off and then hope that it don't get me fired And I'm asking you please Oh how I prayed That the good Lord would come and take me away From this mess of a life that I'm in And I fell to my knees oh and I cried As the lighting rose up from the earth to the sky In this wreck of a life that I'm in And oh how I prayed That the good Lord would come and take me away From this mess of a life that I'm in And I fell to my knees oh and I cried As the lighting rose up from the earth to the sky In this wreck of a life that I'm in In this wreck of a life that I'm in In this wreck of a life that I'm in In this wreck of a life that I'm in In this wreck of a life that I'm in In this wreck of a life that I'm in In this wreck of a life that I'm in
