Saudade

When life around you crumbles, everything's in shambles
We wish upon a star but it doesn't get us very far
Hoping forever but the end is in sight
Can't deal with the fright, the pain, the shame
If life is a game then she don't wanna play
Pack up the rules
Pack up the clues
She can't conform anyway
Find her another way to live, to give, to breathe
To hold dear all the things that she believe
If it's dust to ashes
Then bury me underneath
All the lies and receipts
That she's received
And she's been feeling this way since she was young
Her daddy dun died
And her mum is on the run

She ran away from home
Thinking she'll make it her own
But then she saw the world
And it left her on the ground
Every second she could drown
Again, again, again
Life is pain
Life is pain
Again, again, again

She didn't fit in
Now she's in with wind
Peter pan taught her how to fly
Come to neverland and you will never die
Forever in the sky like a childhood dream
If she had one wish then she'd be with the team
But they didn't need her in the first place
Government checks keep'em thirsty
Then she thought to herself
If they don't want me
I'll leave out the backdoor
Make a life for myself
Even if I'm dirt poor
Yeah everything she earned
She done begged for
But she got kicked down
Passed around town
She finds herself at edge of a window
Praying for a hero but he never comes
Again and again, life is pain
Everything's in vain
She can't beat her demons
She only sees death in freedom
And she's been feeling this way since she was young
Her daddy dun died
And her mum is on the run

She ran away from home
Thinking she'll make it her own
But then she saw the world
And it left her on the ground
Every second she could drown
She ran away from home
Thinking she'll make it her own
But then she saw the world
And it left her on the ground
Every second she could drown
Again, and again
Life is pain
Life is pain
Again, and again, again and again
