This Wreck of a Life Lyrics
Artist: Sam Roberts
Album: We Were Born In a Flame
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 lightning 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 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 lightning 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 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 lightning 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 lightning 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
In this wreck of a life that I€™m in
In this wreck of a life that I€™m in
In this mess of a life that I€™m in
In this mess of a life that I€™m in€
