[Verse 1]

Life's a bitch yet so sublime

I'm going nowhere but I'm making good time

This might kill me but I'll be alright

If I can find a way to get her out of my mind

Pour me a drink, make it a double

I, and I'll just be over here man, I'm not looking for trouble

Sitting and thinking, crying and drinking

Coming up with nothing but some real bad luck

[Chorus]

Sometimes I feel like I'm coming around

Sometimes I just want to scream

It's hard enough to live my life

Without somebody, somebody else pulling the strings

[Verse 2]

Sometimes it's better but it never lasts

Like when your roller coaster comes off the tracks

You can't get up and you can't get down

And everybody else just keeps spinning around

[Chorus]

Sometimes I feel like I'm coming around

Sometimes I just want to scream

It's hard enough to live my life

Without somebody, somebody else pulling the strings

[Trumpet Solo]

[Chorus]

Sometimes I feel like I'm coming around

Sometimes I just want to scream

It's hard enough to live my life

Without somebody, somebody else pulling the strings
