Boredom's tearing me apart
I entered a race that I can't start
They told me if I move that I'd go too far
But I think I'll stay in my shangri-la

That's the story of my life (yeah)
Another day goes drifting by (away)
Now I can't live, but I won't die (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 of myself, it makes me ill

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

Bury myself in the desert sands
'cause 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, lonely night

That's the story of my life (yeah)
Another day goes drifting by (no)
I can't live, but I won't die (oh no)
That's the story of my life
