Life Is Suffering

from Is It All Melting? by Indoor Friends

/

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
