"What We Call Life" lyrics

"What We Call Life"

Do you dream of strangers
Or just darkness in an empty room
While your brothers play without you
Are you suffering

Just lie there for a minute
Can hear the elders spoil serenity
They're not your friends this time
Your enemies
Are you suffering

Is this what we call life
Is this anything I asked for
What we call life
I need to question why

Early hours
Come creeping
No apologies just warm embrace
Maybe now it's time to state your case
Are you suffering

Why they acting so different
They're cementing the worst part of me
Always push aside and try to please
Now you're suffering

Is this what we call life
Is this anything I asked for
What we call life
I need to question why

Is this what we call life
Is this anything I asked for
What we call life
I need to question why
