From the recording The Brightside Of It All
Lyrics
The Brightside Of It All (Laraigné)
I’ve been taking the pills they give every morning.
I’ve been chatting with the devil every night.
Searching for the leftovers of my feelings,
I’ve been waiting for the bright side of it all.
Fighting cold in this freezing inferno.
Defying suffer, such as a lonely penitent.
The doctors told me I should still give it a go,
so then I’m waiting for the bright side of it all.
Cause I’m still here, I don’t know for how long.
And I am still here, what could be so wrong?
And I am still here, living this life through this broken song,
and I’m still waiting for the bright side of it all.
Every night, before I crash, I knock on wood.
The reaper smiles, today he brings me lovely flowers.
He lays his palms over my head and starts to croon,
and then I’m waiting for the bright side of it all.
Cause I’m still here, I don’t know for how long.
And I am still here, what could be so wrong?
And I am still here, living this life through this broken song,
and I’m still waiting for the bright side of it all.
And the demons’ orchestra is taking over.
Their leader is dancing like no other.
The drums are beating.
The horns are blowing.
The fear in my guts is leaving,
I raise my chin to welcome this deadly melody.
Cause I’m still here, I don’t know for how long.
And I am still here, what could be so wrong?
And I am still here, living this life through this broken song,
and I’m still waiting for the bright side of it all.
