This Is Your Life

Something that I hunger for, something you deny

You say I'm bad for you and, baby, so do I

Don't you know that all you gotta do

You could be a lover and, baby, this is

This is your life, don't break it, it's who you do it for

It's the pain and pleasure

This is your life, temptation, a victim of the law

We can talk about it, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh

This is your life, this is your life

If you try to help someone, you get the evil eye

You say you suffocate, well, baby, so do I

Don't you know that all you gotta do

You could be a lover and, baby, this is

This is your life, don't hide it, don't try to mystify

How soft the flesh is

This is your life, get even, even if you die

Don't run for cover, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh

This is your life, temptation, that's who you do it for

It's the pain and the pleasure

This is your life, temptation, a victim of the law

We can talk about it, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh

This is your life

All work and no play, I won't survive

Late at night I need your company

What about me, what about you

This is your life

Define ourselves as something in space

Not enough for everyone, everyone

And as we speak, the enemy is the mind

I see the future coming for you

All the lonely days and the lonely nights

You've been searching for a love so right

It's a tragedy, just stayin' alive, stayin' alive

And all that

Jive talking, what you doing on your back

Jive talking, more rap, less crap

Times are bad, money is tight

Ain't too much heaven on a Saturday night

Tell me now how deep is your love

The heart is soft but the brain is tough

The enemy is the mind, don't let the future fall apart

This is my world too, just run to me

If you ever wanna mend that broken heart

I have seen those nights on Broadway too

Blaming it all, what about you

This is your life

This is your life, don't break it, it's who you do it for

It's the pain and pleasure

This is your life, don't hide it, don't try to mystify

How soft the flesh is

This is your life, temptation

This is your life
