Child Bite – Vexed Life lyrics

[Verse 1]
Worn down
Smooth to the touch
I stare off, misanthropic
Like a hammer on the nerve

[Refrain]
You were right
Wrecked from the start
There's no reason to feel this way
Keep slaving as it rips you apart

[Pre-Chorus]
Nothing works here
I've been here for years
Yeah, nothing works here
I've been here for years

[Chorus]
I, I stare back clear through the eyes of old
I stare back clear through the eyes of old
I stare back clear through the eyes of old
In this vexed life

[Verse 2]
I won't hold my breath until the next misstep
Quick to forget that I'm the lucky one

[Refrain]
You were right
Wrecked from the start
There's no reason to feel this way
Keep slaving as it rips you apart

[Pre-Chorus]
Yeah, nothing works here
I've been here for years
Yeah, nothing works here
I've been here for years

[Chorus]
I, I stare back clear through the eyes of old
I stare back clear through the eyes of old
I stare back clear through the eyes of old
In this vexed life

[Bridge]
I can't see how to do it right
I can't see how to do it right
I can't see
All I see, I see it wrong
All I see is wrong
All I see is wrong
All I see is wrong

[Refrain]
You were right
Wrecked from the start
There's no reason to feel this way
Keep slaving as it rips you apart
As it rips you apart
As it rips you apart
As it rips you apart
