"La Souffrance Des Gens" lyrics

Corb Lund Band Lyrics

"La Souffrance Des Gens"

What have I ever done to have to suffer like I do
Give me two good reasons for the hell I'm going through
I wanna die, I wanna die
It's all I wanna do
Tell me what I did to have to suffer like I do

Help me out with this
Help me make it through
Help me out with this, God
I don't know what to do

Shit I've only heard about
Like people plagued with fear and doubt
And no way in and no way out
And pills in the hand and guns in the mouth are comin' true

What have I ever done to have to suffer like I do
Give me two good reasons for the hell I'm going through
I wanna die, I wanna die
It's all I wanna do
Tell me what I did to have to suffer like I do

The place I'm in don't got no light
It ain't got heat, it don't feel right
It keeps me down and scared in spite
Of all the blood I've shed to shake these blues

What have I ever done to have to suffer like I do
Give me two good reasons for the hell I'm going through
I wanna die, I wanna die
It's all I wanna do
Tell me what I did to have to suffer like I do

This must be it, it can't get worse
And if it does, well warn me first
And then at least I'll change my shirt
And be wearing somethin' red on tonight's news
