Life Is Suffering Lyrics

Cut adrift with a young Nietzsche

Nihilism is feeling in vogue

Beatnik prose in punk rock anthems

We are fantastic animals

But nothingness starts to burn

Cut adrift feels like drowning

And I need a purpose from

Time to time

Cause life won't stop teaching me lessons that scar me

And what I hear is

That life is suffering

Life is suffering

I guess I need to know what pain is

Or else nothing is worth the risk

Overwhelm me with real wonder

Till I'm aching from my smile

Or falling so hard in and out of love

That it rips apart my world

So now I'm starting to learn how

Life is suffering

It's a good time for self-reflection

I like to call it an existential crisis

I must break before I rebuild

It is finally time to expand

But nothingness starts to burn

Cut adrift feels like drowning

And I need a purpose from

Time to time

Cause life won't stop teaching me lessons that scar me

And what I hear is

That life is suffering

Life is suffering

I guess I need to know what pain is

Or else nothing is worth the risk

Overwhelm me with real wonder

Till I'm aching from my smile

Or falling so hard in and out of love

That it rips apart my world

So now I'm starting to learn how

Life is suffering

It's a good time

For an existential crisis

I guess I need to know what pain is

Or else nothing is worth the risk

Overwhelm me with real wonder

Till I'm aching from my smile

Or falling so hard in and out of love

That it rips apart my world

So now I'm starting to learn how

Life is suffering
