Ain't It The Life Lyrics

Artist: Foo Fighters
Album: There Is Nothing Left To Lose

Dear Haley, can you save me from the borrowed cloud I'm on
All you gotta do is try,
Pray you're just getting by
Hey wait I thought you'd made it
How'd your bottled crown fall off
Tell me how'd you get so tired
Faded down to the wire
Try living a lie and kicking out the same old guise
Wasting time, so very ordinary
Wait until my bomb goes off
See the actors run and hide
Fake it all in stride
One day we all can say we're gone
And haunt the ground we're from
Everything's so open wide
Here within the divide
Ain't it the life, got no crime, just sail on by

one of the most thoughtful lyrics by dave and his gang .... reflecting on the futility of this ordinary life ... so banal yet, extremely heart touching. their best song.
