Southern Life (What It Must Be Like) Lyrics

[00:19.19] All my life I closed my eyes
[00:23.48] And stumbled in with wayward mind
[00:29.56] A stubborn child, but love did have
[00:35.60] With one light shining, overlooked
[00:44.63] Oh, I wish I knew what you had said
[00:54.94] I was hardened by what thoughts you meant
[01:07.06] My hands are shaking as a mother
[01:14.39] Trying to raise her son right
[01:19.28] Why can't you see it from the other side?
[01:25.40] We must imagine what it must be like
[01:34.59] The southern life
[01:39.76] It's such a fucking lie
[01:48.15] Oh, what it must be like
[02:01.99] Shall his life be like my shooting star
[02:08.50] Forever frozen? No, he's too smart
[02:14.24] I can't believe what I have seen
[02:20.21] I wake up to a fucking dream
[02:25.97] There is no light, there is no dark
[02:31.20] There is no life or sense of being
[02:39.47] Oh, what it must be like
[02:44.60] Oh, what it must be like
[02:50.45] Such a southern life
[02:56.20] Such a southern life
[03:03.21] Oh, what it must be like
[03:08.79] Oh, what it must be like
[03:14.81] Oh, what it must be like
[03:20.92] Oh, what it must be like
[03:26.40]
