Lowlife Lyrics

Old suitcase, clean getaway
I'm the one who takes the blame again
New day but the same lines, I
Feel like a victim of the dollar sign

All these years on my own
Fight my fight all alone
'Til you came, don't you know
Don't you know

Baby, you're the highlight of my lowlife
Take a shitty day and make it alright, yeah, alright
Oh, in every circumstance
Yeah, you make the difference
Baby, you're the highlight of my lowlife, lowlife

This bad taste, these headaches
Wake up on the floor again, ah, yeah
My torn dress, this failed test
Soon they will be erased

All these years on my own
Fight my fight all alone
'Til you came, don't you know, don't you know

Baby, you're the highlight of my lowlife
Take a shitty day and make it alright, yeah, alright
Oh, in every circumstance
Yeah, you make the difference
Baby, you're the highlight of my lowlife, lowlife

And I get so lonely
I can't make it on my own
And I need to call ya
"Can you come to my chateau?"
Take me in your arms and
Hold me tight, yeah, pull me close
Whisper in my ear
All I want you to say is

Baby, you're the highlight of my lowlife, (lowlife) hey
Take a shitty day and make it alright, yeah, alright
Oh, in every circumstance
Yeah, you make the difference
Baby, you're the highlight of my lowlife, lowlife
Baby, you're the highlight of my lowlife, hey
Take a shitty day and make it alright, yeah, alright
Oh, in every circumstance
Yeah, you make the difference
Baby, you're the highlight of my lowlife, lowlife

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.

I think the music video has a lot of symbolism! I think the Devil represents her boyfriend and how much of a worthless jerk he is! The girl, before they met, was a good girl and had a high-life! When they started dating, she started becoming more rebellious! In the scene where she's sitting at a table with the Devil, he takes a banana, making a sexual gesture, making her feel uncomfortable to the point where she leaves! I think that scene represents how her boyfriend wants to have a sex with her, but then she breaks up with him because he's too sexual and she's not ready to loose her virginity, reuniting with the good girl she once was!
