Lyrics:

All my life I closed my eyes

And stumbled in with wayward mind

A stubborn child, but love did have

With one light shining,

Overlooked

Oh I wish I knew what you had said

I was hardened by what thoughts you meant

My hands are shaking as a mother

Trying to raise her son right

Why can’t you see it from the other side

We must imagine what it must be like

Ooh, the southern life

Ooh, it’s such a fucking lie

Oh what it must be like

Shall his life be like my shooting star

forever frozen?

No - he’s too smart.

I can’t believe what I have seen

I wake up to a fucking dream

There is no light

There is no dark

There is no life

Or sense of being.

Oh what it must be like

Oh what it must be like

Such a southern life

Such a southern life

Oh what it must be like

Oh what it must be like

Oh what it must be like

Oh what it must be like
