This Is Your Life
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Something that I hunger for, something you deny,
You say I'm bad for you and, baby, so do I.
Don't you know that all you gotta do,
You could be a lover and, baby, this is.
This is your life,
Don't break it, it's who you do it for,
Tt's the pain and pleasure.
This is your life,
Temptation, a victim of the law,
We can talk about it.
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh.
This is your life
This is your life.
If you try to help someone, you get the evil eye,
You say you suffocate, well, baby, so do I.
Don't you know that all you gotta do,
You could be a lover and, baby, this is.
This is your life,
Don't hide it, don't try to mystify how soft the flesh is.
This is your life,
Get even, even if you die, don't run for cover.
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh.
This is your life,
Temptation, that's who you do it for,
It's the pain and the pleasure.
This is your life,
Temptation, a victim of the law,
We can talk about it.
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh.
This is your life.
All work and no play, I won't survive,
Late at night I need your company,
What about me, what about you,
This is your life.
Define ourselves as something in space,
Not enough for everyone, everyone and as we speak,
The enemy is the mind,
I see the future coming for you,
All the lonely days and the lonely nights,
You've been searching for a love so right,
It's a tragedy just stayin' alive, stayin' alive,
And all that.
Jive talking, what you doing on your back,
Jive talking, more rap less crap.
Times are bad, money is tight,
Ain't too much heaven on a saturday night.
Tell me now how deep is your love,
The heart is soft but the brain is tough.
The enemy is the mind, don't let the future fall apart,
This is my world too, just run to me,
If you ever wanna mend that broken heart,
I have seen those nights on broadway too,
Blaming it all, what about you,
This is your life.
This is your life,
Don't break it, it's who you do it for,
It's the pain and pleasure.
This is your life,
Don't hide it, don't try to mystify how soft the flesh is.
This is your life,
Temptation.
This is your life...
