When We're Through

I woke up one early evening and I knew I was alone
Did the sun come up or did it rain again I'll never know
I felt the acid in my stomach rise above my throat as I dialed

There was a message from my mother
From about 7am
Said I've forgotten what you sound like
And I'm wondering how you've been
I cried myself to sleep back on the floor unconscious in denial

Life is just a little part of what the world will do
To get its point across it beats you 'til your black and blue
And decides just when you're in or when your out
'Cuz when you're through you're through

There's a cafe around the corner from the home I call a house
I sit and play sudoku 'til I figure some shit out
I drink the days first coffee and I smoke
The last cigarette of my life

And I'm wondering out of all the crazy places that I've been
Would it ever be as good as sitting here just with a friend
Where its always understood it might be time
To switch the coffee to the wine

Life is just a little part of what the world will do
To get its point across it beats you 'til you're black and blue
And decides just when you're in or when you're out
'Cuz when you're through you're through

Yeah, Yeah
Whoaaaah, Oh
Whoaahh
Ohhhh, Ohhh, Ohhh
Oh

Janis sings to me just like she's sitting by my side
And I wonder just how many times shes sat like me and cried
I've made it passed the age of 27
So theres no use in dying

And all my friends have asked the question
"Baby will you be ok?"
I wanna tell them yes 'cuz I know thats what I should say
But I've got no crystal ball and I cant bring myself to lie and why should I?

Hey, yeah I think that
Life is just a little part of what this world will do
It brings us to the brink and beats the shit right outta you
And decides just when you're in or when you're out
'Cuz when you're through you're through

Yeah, yeah, yeah
Life is just a little part of what this world will do
It brings us to the brink and beats the shit right outta you
And decides just when you're in or when you're out
'Cuz when you're through you're through

Ayyye, Oh
I guess I'm through
When you're through, you're through
