YOU GOT LIFE
(by Bryan Titus & Jonathan Weed)

There’s a paycheck burning a hole in his pocket
And a faded photograph inside a gold plated locket
Worn with the weight of a hang man’s noose around his neck
So he hunts through the neon lit night for distraction
Where easy excuses buy cheap satisfactions
And a double of bottom shelf whiskey might help him forget
That he wanted love but he got life
Yeah he wanted so bad to feel it but it cut him down to size
He locked up his heart behind the cold steel bars
All he wanted was love … but he got life
Now the day’s just a chore when the kids are at school
And her man is working late again he takes her for a fool
Sometimes the ring on her finger is heavy like a ball and chain
So she hunts through the false names and fake interactions
Where easy excuses make for small satisfactions
The chat room rendezvous sometimes they quiet the pain … but not all the way
‘Cuz she wanted love but she got life
Yeah she wanted so bad to feel it but it cut her like a knife
She locked up her heart behind the cold steel bars … forever
Sentenced to yesterday’s endless repeat
Locked in this limbo how you yearn to be free
But heartbreak will hold you like prison cell walls
Trapped like a spirit … haunting the halls of your heart
‘Cuz you wanted love but you got life
Yeah you want so bad to feel it but it cuts you down inside
Don’t lock up your heart behind the cold steel bars
All you wanted was love … But you got life
