This Is Your Life

[Verse 1] It's another November evening As you remember your way home You mete out your aggressions On what's left of your blackened soul You've come to this conclusion As you're dragged from another bloody fight You've reached the age where you've decided That you've lived out your whole life [Pre-Chorus] Another busted knuckle, taken down by a kick to the balls You're wasting time, wasting time as life's shadow grows so tall It's another busted knuckle, it's a fight you'll never win And now you bow your head in shame for a sin no one forgives [Chorus] Fight, fight, you'll never win (This is our life) Tonight I'll start again (This is our time) Fight, fight, you'll never win (This is our life) How will I make amends? (This is our time) This is our life, this is our time This is my life, don't waste my time [Verse 2] Your wife can't understand you And you've alienated your oldest friends Breaking back and fingers to the bone Burning candles at both ends You're tired of this petty life you lead A series of dull events A two-bit, half-assed effigy Of someone else's dread [Pre-Chorus] Another busted knuckle, taken down by a kick to the balls You're wasting time, wasting time as the shadows grow so tall It's another busted knuckle, it's a fight you'll never win And now you bow your head in shame for a sin no one forgives [Chorus] Fight, fight, you'll never win (This is our life) Tonight I'll start again (This is our time) Fight, fight, you'll never win (This is our life) How will I make amends? (This is our time) This is our life, this is our time This is my life, don't waste my time [Outro] This is our life This is our time This is my life This is my time
