Dear Haley, can you save me from
The borrowed cloud I'm on?
All you gotta do is try
Pray you're just getting by

Hey wait I thought you'd made it
How'd your bottled crown fall off
Tell me how'd you get so tired
Faded down to the wire

Try living a lie
And kicking out the same old guise
Wasting time

So very ordinary
Wait until my bomb goes off
See the actors run and hide
Fake it all in stride

One day we all can say we're gone
And haunt the ground we're from
Everything's so open wide
Here within the divide

Try living a lie
And kicking out the same old guise
Wasting time

Ain't it the life, ain't it the life, ain't it the life
Got no crime
Just sail on by
Sail on by

Ain't it the life, ain't it the life, ain't it the life
Got no crime
Just sail on by
Sail on by
Ain't it the life

Just sail on by

Try living a lie
And kicking out the same old guise
Wasting time

Ain't it the life, ain't it the life, ain't it the life
Got no crime
Just sail on by
Sail on by

Ain't it the life, ain't it the life, ain't it the life
Got no crime
Just sail on by
Sail on by
Ain't it the life

Ain't it the life
