Drive-By Truckers - A World of Hurt

Текст песни

Once upon a time
My advice to you would’ve been go out and find yourself a whore
But I guess I’ve grown up
'Cause I don’t give that kind of advice anymore
It’s gonna be a world of hurt
It’s gonna be a world of hurt
It’s gonna be a world of hurt
And I was twenty-seven
When I figured out that blowing my brains out wasn’t the answer
So I decided
Maybe I should find a way to make this world work out for me
And my good friend Paul was eighty-three
When he told me to love is to feel pain
And I thought about that a lot back then
And I think about that again and again
It’s gonna be a world of hurt
It’s gonna be a world of hurt
It’s gonna be a world of hurt
«To love is to feel pain»
There ain’t no way around it
The very nature of love is to grieve when it is over
The secret to a happy ending is knowing when to roll the credits
Better roll them now before something else goes wrong
It’s a wonderful world if you can put aside the sadness
And hang on to every ounce of beauty upon you
Better take the time to know it
If you feel anything at all
It’s gonna be a world of hurt
It’s gonna be a world of hurt
It’s gonna be a world of hurt
So if what you have is working for you
Or you think that it stands a reasonable chance
And if whatever’s broken seems fixable
And nothing’s beyond repair
If you still think about each other and smile
Before you remember how screwed up it’s gotten
Or maybe still dream of a time less rotten
Remember, it ain’t too late to take a deep breath
And throw yourself into it with everything you’ve got
It’s great to be alive
It’s gonna be a world of hurt
It’s gonna be a world of hurt
It’s gonna be a world of hurt
It’s gonna be a world of hurt
It’s gonna be a world of hurt
It’s gonna be a world of hurt
It’s gonna be a world of hurt
