Ain't The Life I Asked For Lyrics

When you open your eyes and there's nothing but black
And you try hard to count all the knives in your back
In the bed you lay in you've fallen apart
And all of your sorrow now live in your heart

Just a young man I stood with a ticket in hand
My mom signed the papers said you pay back the bank
With a smile on my face and my dreams in my sight
Left all that I had for a rock'n'roll life

Could have been better
Should have been better

This ain't the life that I asked for I know
But it is all that I got
This ain't the life the life I wanted to live
Now it is what I've become Accusations for breakfast too much on my plate
Two little children caught between love and hate
Religious obsession but you sin more and more
Grab what I can now and head for the door

Could have been better
Should have been better

This ain't the life that I asked for I know
But it is all that I got
This ain't the life the life I wanted to live
Now it is what I've become

When your life falls apart at the end
when your life falls apart at the end
when your life falls apart at the end
There's nothing, nothing at all
