Lyrics:

[Verse 1]
I woke up on early evening and I knew I was alone
Did the sun come up or did it rain again, I will never know
I felt the acid in my stomach rise above my throat as I dialled

There was a message from my mother
From about 7a.m. said I have forgotten what you sound like
And I am wondering how you have been
I cried myself to asleep back on the floor
Unconscious in denial

[Chorus]
Life is just a little part of what the world will do
To get it is point across it beats you till you are black & blue
And decides just when you are in or when you are out
Because when you are through you are through

[Verse 2]
There is a cafe around the corner from a home I call a house
I sit and play Sudoku till I figure some shit out
I drink the day’s first coffee and I smoke the last cigarette of my life

And I am wondering out of all the crazy places that I have been
Would it ever be as good as sitting here just with a friend?
Where it is always understood it might be time, to switch the coffee to the wine

[Chorus]

Yeah, Yeah
Whoaaaah, Ohhhh
Whoaaaaahhhhhh

Ohhhh, Ohhh, Ohhh
Oh

[Verse 3]
Janis sings to me just like she is sitting by my side
And I wonder just how many times she sat like me and cried
I have made it past the age of twenty-seven so there is no use in dying

And my friends have asked the question:
“Baby, will you be okay?”
I want to tell them yes because I know that is what I should say
But I have got no crystal ball and I cannot bring myself to lie and why should I?

[Chorus]
Hey, yeah - I think that
Life is just a little part of what this world will do
It is bring us to the brink and beats the shit right out to you
And decides just when you are in or when you are out
Because when you are through you are through

Yeah, Yeah, Yeah
Life is just a little part of what the world will do
It is brings us to the brink and beats the sh1t right out to you
And decides just when you are in or when you are out
When you are through you are through

[Outro]
Aye, Oh
I guess I am through
Mmmmm
When you are through, you are through
