My Life In A Nutshell (Studio Session)

[Intro]

My life in a nutshell

This is my life in a nutshell

[Chorus]

This is my life in a nutshell

Heaven's so far away, I'm startin' to love Hell

They know me for my talent, my talent

But don't know how my pain feels

These prescriptions that I fi-ill

Never made the pain heal

[Verse 1]

Fuck, uh

Back in the lost and found I go

But I'm more lost than found, I know

I feel so cold in L.A. like I'm sittin' back at home, Chicago

They say living's harder than dyin', I'm willing to gamble that

Find me unresponsive in a hotel room, girl, can you handle that?

Worst case scenario

You still hear my songs on the stereo

You still hear my name on thе radio

So I'll live forever, forеver

[Chorus]

This is my life in a nutshell

Heaven's so far away, I'm startin' to love Hell

They know me for my talent, my talent

But don't know how my pain feels

These prescriptions that I fi-ill

Never made the pain heal

[Verse 2]

Oh-oh-oh

Death melodies I sing

Cardiac arrest notes

I hate to bring the negative vibes in the room

But that's the ugly truth

So much of my life and time the world's consumed

I throw the deuce and grab the noose

Onto the next chapter

None of this matters

I've been feelin' helpless

[Chorus]

This is my life in a nutshell

Heaven's so far away, I'm startin' to love Hell

They know me for my talent, my talent

But don't know how my pain feels

These prescriptions that I fi-ill

Never made the pain heal

[Verse 3]

They kick me while I’m down, they count me out

They put me on the ground, and leave me out to die

I wonder why I try sometimes

I wonder why I try, uh

I wonder why I try sometimes

I wonder why I try, uh

Not the best of times, it’s the worst of times

It's the darkest of days

I don’t see a light, I don’t see a light

But the dark is okay

I use it as my cage, a trap in protection

Ain’t nobody ever showed me affection

I should end it all just to teach them a lesson

Why, why is this my life in a nutshell?

[Chorus]

This is my life in a nutshell

Heaven's so far away, I'm startin' to love Hell

They know me for my talent, my talent

But don't know how my pain feels

These prescriptions that I fi-ill

Never made the pain heal
