Still Life

Nanci Griffith · The Loving Kind [2009]

You walked the line all your life

You never thought you'd have to change it

You're always there to give advice

You never thought you'd have to take it



It's still life but it's broken

It's still life when it's torn

It's still life that you're walking

On and on and on and on and on



You need to change, you don't know how

Your life could use a reformation

If you could see you as I see you now

I know you'd change the situation



It's still life but it's broken

It's still life when it's torn

It's still life that you're walking

On and on and on and on and on



It's always someone else's fault

You're always right, you're never wrong

You think that life's a game but this is real



You think you can just walk away

And leave destruction in your wake

But you're not walking anywhere near



Is it still life if you are drowning?

Is it still life when you fall?

Is it still life when you can't carry

On and on and on and on and on?



It's still life but it's broken

It's still life when you're torn

It's still life when you're walking

On and on and on and on and on and on



It's still life but it's broken

It's still life but it's torn

It's still life but you're walking

On and on and on and on and on and on and on



It's still life
