Not Bulletproof

from Monster by Kenn Lowy

/

lyrics

throwing away your friends like an old newspaper
tossing your lover aside with a drag from a cigarette
keeping everything deep inside of your head
until it erupts, and there’s noting left for you to hold on to
there’s no one there, just an empty house
nobody to hold, nobody who cares

live your life like you really want it
don’t let your shoulders get too tight
while you’re looking back at what you’ve thrown away
you can’t have it all, even if you want it

where are you going in such a rush?
what will you see as you pass it by?
is it worth all this trouble to get you there?
when all you do, is say “it’s not enough”

live your life like you really want it
don’t let your shoulders get too tight
while you’re looking back at what you’ve thrown away
you can’t have it all, even if you want it

what did your parents do to make you so unhappy?
where they too tired to take you out for as walk
did they ever hold you and tell you how much they loved you?
or was it all kept under the skin?

throwing away your friends like an old newspaper
tossing your lover aside with a drag from a cigarette
the world is spinning and your life is spinning with it
until it erupts and there’s nothing left for you to hold on to

you threw it all away, when you needed it most
you didn’t have the time, now it’s all you’ve got.

and you’re not bullet proof …
