Seven months on her own a new life on the way Her mom gone too early Advice come too late The churches were full so I guess he ain’t savin’ nobody
And he cried every night Just like babies’ll do To say “hey mom please wake up, I’m counting on you” “What a shame” friends would say “We thought she’d end up being a doctor.”
Oh and I wonder if this life should be Lived for greater purpose than being someone else’s dream Oh and I wonder what this life should be Lately all I need’s just a little more sleep
You dance back and forth between rhythm and blues It was brave or it was just stupid But to tell you the truth If there was a difference I guess I never knew what it was
It was red in the morning and three blues at night They said feelin’ sedated man, feelin’ all right And if somethings been wrong I guess this is the light in the tunnel
Oh and I wonder if this life should be Lived for greater purpose than feeling nothing constantly Oh and I wonder if this life should be Lately all I need’s just a little more sleep
Sometimes it’s to wake up And some to forget The chemical answer it’s the questions I have And no I don’t need it I just don’t know where I’d be without it
Oh and I wonder if this life should be Lived for greater purpose than being someone else’s dream Oh and I wonder what life should be Lately all I need is a little more sleep Just a little more
