Phil Gawen - Meaning of Life Lyrics

Woke up through the tunnel of life
And then they slapped his ass
He saw a man with a big cross who said
I hope he lasts
And what he learned from all his days
Is that nothing's forever
With a bleeding heart through thick and thin
For everyone's pleasure

Don't do this, don't do that
He never could make up his own mind
And out of all that chaos
You're supposed to keep an open mind
Childhood fears while Santa cheers
Adults can be cruel
ABCs and 1, 2, 3s and the toilet train blues

Twisting and turning to survive the morning
Reach up and then fall down
Nightfall will steal his crown

So, they sent him off to Sunday church
To find his key to heaven
They taught him how to smoke cigars
And light some stupid candles
Nothing was stranger then what he could
Touch and feel

And he sees no meaning
When he's left there bleeding
What is his meaning in life

Someday he's going to end up there
Making all his amends
And when he finally gets there
He'll have nothing to defend
When push comes shoving
And pays his dues, she will not care
Second chance at some romance,
Suffers and fails

Street lights, while the city cries
People, in their social sties
No rules, screaming for their lives

Reach out to give a hand
And then they snatch his balls
Some say for charity, to keep him walking tall
Scheming, cheating, everyone's competing
Living, dying, death come so surprising

And he keeps on worrying 'bout
Reasons for creation
Best that he spends his life
In mass hallucinations

Much less to fear when you are 6 feet under
Dead and gone

And he sees no meaning
When he's left there bleeding
What is that meaning
That left him pleading
No more believing
No more deceiving

What is the meaning of life
