Life is yours

You laugh at life 'cause "it's only a rough draft"
You can't see the ending and I promise that's that
you won't rewrite the story even when you know it's bad
You can't get to where your at, I wonder if you understand:

You can't use a ladder to reach up to the stars
No you can't drive there with your expensive cars
You can't drink to heaven, so get out of the bars
this picture is distorted but remember where you are

Can't leave the pain when you sit and you cry
Can't forget the memory with drinking, gettin' high
Won't escape the past with the harder you try
Don't try to speak the truth when your living a lie

You can't save your soul when your life is dead
You try to play the role when your soul is bled
then you can't take it back 'cause its already said
your never gonna dance whith where you live in your head

You can't have the world if you dont have yourself
You can't have heaven if your comfort is in hell
You can't ever have anything else
You know it's true, youve already put your life up on a shelf
