Pulling The Strings

[Verse 1]
Life's a bitch yet so sublime
I'm going nowhere but I'm making good time
This might kill me but I'll be alright
If I can find a way to get her out of my mind

Pour me a drink, make it a double
I, and I'll just be over here man, I'm not looking for trouble
Sitting and thinking, crying and drinking
Coming up with nothing but some real bad luck

[Chorus]
Sometimes I feel like I'm coming around
Sometimes I just want to scream
It's hard enough to live my life
Without somebody, somebody else pulling the strings

[Verse 2]
Sometimes it's better but it never lasts
Like when your roller coaster comes off the tracks
You can't get up and you can't get down
And everybody else just keeps spinning around

[Chorus]
Sometimes I feel like I'm coming around
Sometimes I just want to scream
It's hard enough to live my life
Without somebody, somebody else pulling the strings

[Trumpet Solo]

[Chorus]
Sometimes I feel like I'm coming around
Sometimes I just want to scream
It's hard enough to live my life
Without somebody, somebody else pulling the strings
