It's A Good Life - The Horrors

You could try to live, but you only shadow

Trying to find yourself

Going nowhere when you don’t know who to follow

Moving to the river’s edge

Right to the start, and I know where to find her

But the light in her heart is softly dying out

Again

Again

Lying to the world, you decide you’ve got to hide out

Lying even to yourself

I guess you’re a girl with a world of hidden shallows

The story never writes itself

She lay in the dark

But I don’t know who found her

And in all different ways, the story is playing out

Again

Again

It’s a good life, a good life

Hold on

It’s a good life, a good life

Until it’s gone

It’s a good life, a good life

Hold on

It’s a good life, a good life

Until it’s gone
