Life Hasn't Been Very Kind To Me
My first love was more toxic than Chernobyl
Even through the red flags, I still tried to stay hopeful
But the longer I had hope, the more her grip grew tighter on me
I'd fight her calmly
But that would ignite her, oddly
Welcome to my odyssey
It's filled with confident manipulation and incompetent dishonesty
For years on end without a single genuine apology
My lyrics can't begin scratch the surface of this failed romantic circus
When I knew that it was time to try emotional self service
Who would think that I'd get blamed because Chernobyl got deserted?
And although my life won't be the same all thanks to these trust issues
I still think it's time to move on and just say
"I forgive you"
Sometimes I believe that life is pretty blood thirsty
'Cause I don't think it would hurt to go and show a little mercy
Yeah, life hasn't been very kind to me
I don't think this shit is right for me
Sometimes I believe that life is pretty blood thirsty
'Cause I don't think it would hurt to go and show a little mercy
Yeah, life hasn't been very kind to me
I don't think this shit is right for me
My Mum kicked to the streets, when I was sixteen
Which drove me to the drugs, only recently got clean
I was a junky; a fiend
A battle best left unseen
It drained me like a ravine
It weren't as bad as it seems
It was a lot worse
Don't you find it funny how God works?
Maybe I was meant to live this life so you could drop your guard at my verse
If I could get through to someone, it would make my pain worth while
But I don't blame you Mum, 'cause I know I was a bad child
Thank you for kicking me out, it forced me to grow up
I don't know where I'd be right now if I was still that little screw up
My soul got retouched
And now I'm not afraid to say
"Mum, I love you so much" but
Sometimes I believe that life is pretty blood thirsty
'Cause I don't think it would hurt to go and show a little mercy
Yeah, life hasn't been very kind to me
I don't think this shit is right for me
Sometimes I believe that life is pretty blood thirsty
'Cause I don't think it would hurt to go and show a little mercy
Yeah, life hasn't been very kind to me
I don't think this shit is right for me
Even through the red flags, I still tried to stay hopeful
But the longer I had hope, the more her grip grew tighter on me
I'd fight her calmly
But that would ignite her, oddly
Welcome to my odyssey
