Hard Life to Love (Alternative Studio Recording)

Living in the fast lane is easy
'Til you run out of road
Friends will turn to strangers
When you're out of control

A slip of the tongue when it's done
Is often hard to see it through
So never let your words be lies
Or they'll come looking for you

It's a hard life to love

For the price of glory you left
And threw your fortunes away
Never really cared too much
For the job or the pay

You're standing in the rain
With no cover but you never complain
You're an angry young man face to face
But your mirror's insane

It's a hard life to love

I'm simply denying a part in your world
And I see, see how it turns, I see how it burns
And you're simply refusing the fact that you're blind
And I see no more, I see red, I only see red

Think of all the times I was hurting
But you felt no pain
Think of all the lies you told me
Again and again

And still you see the truth
From those who continue to lie
And now you're seeking life
From those who are living to die

It's a hard life to love

I'm simply denying a part in your world
'Cause I see, see how it turns, see how it burns
And you're simply refusing to see that you're blind
And I see no more, I see red, I only see red

Living in the fast lane ain't easy
When you run out of road
Friends will turn to strangers
When there's nowhere to go

Don't give a damn when you're lost
'Cause you'll die from it all
Laws were made to be broken
And you do it for the thrill of it all

It's a hard life to love
It's a hard life to love
