The Sweet Life

Yea I know I look worse for the wear
But I have everything at my fingertips
I've been infantilized by a pat on the back and an endless go-ahead
Ain't nothing gonna break my stride
Ain't nothing gonna slow me down
Oh no. When there's no one disapproving

Yet its women not lack of ambition that keeps good men bedridden
Jesus Christ I am forever making the same mistakes
Yet its women not lack of ambition that keeps good men bedridden
Jesus Christ I am forever making the same mistakes

I continue to stumble around as long as everyone cheers me on
Am I the only one without the weapon to end the war?
Ain't nothing gonna break my stride
Ain't nothing gonna slow me down
Oh no. When there's no one disapproving

Yet its women not lack of ambition that keeps good men bedridden
Jesus Christ I am forever making the same mistakes
Yet its women not lack of ambition that keeps good men bedridden
Jesus Christ I am forever making the same mistakes

Deaf men in the city of sirens
Blind men in the presence of snakes
But I'm adrift in a sea of temptation
A newborn with inadequate skills
Turn the party up, honestly be damned
How fucking pathetic of me
I can't go this way
Not when I have your heart
Oh what a childish life I have led
God, what a wicked man I have been
But ain't nothing gonna break my stride
Ain't nothing gonna slow me down
Oh no. When there's no on disapproving
