Robert DeLong - This Life Lyrics

Robert DeLong Lyrics

"This Life"

This life
Is so completely different
Than expected
My fight
Is not with gods or supermen
But with middlemen
Who look just like me
Who look just like me
Who look just like-

Me I do my job better than most
Working for a criminal
Saving for my next dose
All my evil deeds are payin' the bills
I just do what I am told, thought I would by now but don't

Have a kid
I don't have car
I'm stuck in my head
I'm stuck at the start
Don't wish I was I dead
Cus I'm playin' my part
But it feels so strange

This life
Is so completely different
Than expected
My fight
Is not with gods or supermen
But with middlemen
Who look just like me
Who look just like me
Who look just like-

Me I'm just a dick, livin' alone
Steering clear of messy love, paying for sex on the phone
There's always someone new, for me to avoid
I get around, while getting old
Thought I would by now but don't

Have a girl, I don't have a guy
I wave at the world, it passes me by
My fists are unfurled, and I wanna know why it feels so strange

It feels so strange
It feels so strange
It feels so strange
It feels so strange

This life
Is so completely different
Than expected
My fight
Is not with gods or supermen
But with middlemen
Who look just like me
Who look just like me
Who look just like me
Who look just like me
Who look just like
Me I do my job better then most
