Hard Life Lyrics - Singles - Bonnie Prince Billy

And it's a hard life 

For a man with no wife 

Babe, it's a hard life 

God makes you live 

But without it 

Don't doubt it 

You don't even have 

Your tears to give 

I wake up and I'm fine 

With my dreamings still on my mind 

But it don't take long, you see 

For the demons to come and visit me 

And I've got my problems 

Sometimes love don't solve them 

And I end each day 

In a song 

And it's a hard life 

For a man with no wife 

Lord, it's a hard life 

God makes you live 

But without it 

Baby, don't doubt it 

You don't even have 

Your tears to give 

I know I'm a hard man 

To live with sometimes 

Maybe it ain't in me 

To make you a happy wife of mine 

Maybe you'll kill me 

Honey I don't blame you 

If I was in your place 

Maybe that's what I would do 

But I ain't breathing, let me breathe 

Let me go, let me leave 

I don't know, but I might lose 

I might bum, might blow a fuse 

So let me go 

Lay it down 

On my own 

Let me drown 

Let me go 

Go where you don't know
