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 Another busted knuckle, taken down by a kick to the balls You've 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 Fight, fight, you'll never win Tonight I'll start again Fight, fight, you'll never win How will I make amends This is our life,this is our time This is my life don't waste my time 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 Tired of this petty life you lead A series of dull events A two-bit, half-assed effigy Of someone else's dread Another busted knuckle, taken down by a kick to the balls You've 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 Fight, fight, you'll never win Tonight I'll start again Fight, fight, you'll never win How will I make amends This is our life, this is our time This is my life don't waste my time This is our life, this is our time This is my life This is my time This is our life, this is our time This is my life don't waste my time
