Cover art for We All Die lyrics by Cat Power

Here you go sayin’ that she's out Here you go, marriage and kids and drug addiction All the lies aside I believe I am the luckiest person alive Hell, we all die sometimes Hell, we all try somewhere

Money always sees Money always draws the lines Hope you can see through the beggars and the pleaders Do you happen to know where I am from? I'm lost and left sore far from home Far from home Do you happen to know where I am from? I'm lost far from Mom All the lies aside I believe I am the luckiest person alive Hell, we all die sometimes Hell, we all try somewhere, somewhere, somewhere, somewhere

Stand on my knees so I can see yours, standing on my hands I found my way home, standing on my head…

This song is about someone ending an adulterous relationship because they realized that it made them feel lost, sore, and dead. But now they feel lucky because they were able get out of the demeaning situation. They turned it upside-down and found their way back home.
