Life always dumps something in your lap   You're constantly busy redrawing your map   You leave behind a fading trail   Of images and words that you hope will prevail      Life always dumps something in your way   You try to make the best of it everyday   You could give up and give in but you prefer   To keep hoping some kind of change might occur   Just hoping some kind of change might occur      Misery sure loves company   And nobody's ever who they seem to be   The daily horror of people at their worst   And most selfish, one day, your bubble will burst      So much time should not have passed   At least not that way and not so fast   It wasn't always easy, it wasn't always fun   But it was always worth it, regrets i have none   It was always worth it, regrets i have none      Life always dumps something so you should try.   To acknowledge the fact you're surrounded by   These relics of a life that no longer exists   Your name still appears on the waiting lists      Life always dumps something that makes things worse   There are no rules in this self-help universe   It's never what you were expecting to find.   There's darkness ahead and there's darkness behind.   There's darkness ahead and there's darkness behind.      There's darkness ahead and there's darkness behind.
