The Good Life - Drinking with the Girls Lyrics
You thought you had it madeLike the songs would write themselvesBut your words ran out of inkAnd your fingers lost the chordsNow you lay around so boredAnd you hit the bar at 2:00And you waste your time on girlsThey know they're getting usedThey love the pain that you createThe drunken fights you fabricateBecause they've been hurt too, worse than youYou told them not to get involvedSome bullshit excuse to escape unbruisedBut they move on, while you're stuckHating your self-deprecation, your self-centered songsThe space you've createdBetween your words and your actionsThese loveless liasons have left you aloneAll you've gained is a lossYou wish and you wish and you wishYou could regain a love you never had to begin withYou wished and you prayed and tried to stay in loveOr at least in your lover's good gracesJust to keep it goingBecause when they leave, the drinks get strongerAnd much, much more frequentFor the sloppy drunk boysThey hide in their basementsWhere the songs write themselvesYeah, it used to be easyBefore we got lazy and drink with the girls"No, I know it's not your faultNo, you said not to get involved"Whatever makes you happyWhatever you need to believeIn all these self-inflicted tragediesYou scribble them down on that miserable soundI guess this is the good lifeYour self-deprication has made it's translationThese lyrics are done
