Autumn's tearin' me apart
I entered a race that I can't start
They told me if I move that I could fall
But I think I'll stay in my Shangrala

That's the story of my life (yeah)
Another day goes drifting by (away)
Oh I can live but I won't lie (no)
That's the story of my life

Oh I just barely stay afloat
I'm too scared to rock the boat
But when I wake is when I feel, I feel
I think to myself it makes me ill

That's the story of my life (yeah)
Another junkie in the sky (yeah)
I can live but I won't lie (no)
That's the story of my life

Buried myself in the desert sands
Cuz I don't care for the world's demands
But at the end of the day
I think I'll be alright (alright)
Hope I can make it through another
long and lonely night

That's the story of my life (yeah)
Another day goes driftin' by (away)
I can live but I won't lie (oh yeah)
That's the story of my life
