Life and Times

You climb a mountain just to turn away and fall back down
You talk to no one just so you can claim you’ve been abandoned now
Fake another heart ache, baby ain’t you proud?
You want protection, but the walls you’ve built won’t let it in
Your mind protests the only reminiscent place your heart has been
Let it fill you up and bring you down again
As far as our life and times exist
I, I’m sick and tired of this
But these aches and pains ain’t hard to miss, like you
You, mistaking the blisters for bliss
Dwell in fires of your abyss
But these flames ain’t gonna lick and kiss me too
You saw a picture of your happiness so warm and kind
Tattooed on the piece of mind you struggled for, but couldn’t find
And you slipped inside yourself, girl, good luck getting through
You take the worst of it and claim that you’re right
There’s nothing in this world for you
Well indeed you’re right if you don’t even try to fight
Better change that view tonight it coming true
Don’t let it get to you
As far as our life and times exist
I, I’m sick and tired of this
But these aches and pains ain’t hard to miss, like you
You, mistaking the blisters for bliss
Dwell in fires of your abyss
But these flames ain’t gonna lick and kiss me too
As far as our life and times exist
I, I’m sick and tired of this
But these aches and pains ain’t hard to miss, like you
You, mistaking the blisters for bliss
Dwell in fires of your abyss
But these flames ain’t gonna lick and kiss me too
