Slow Kill by Kristina Murray Lyrics
[Verse 1]
There's no such thing as a satisfied mind
And my heavy heart's hung out on a clothes line
Seems every day gets a little bit colder
And I know things are bad, things are bad all over
[Verse 2]
Hell is empty and the devil is Zeus
God loves a rich man and that's the gospel truth
And I'd ask Jesus to help me along
But tell me, what good's praying ever done?
[Chorus]
And it's just my luck and it's just as well
Life ain't nothin' but a slow kill
[Verse 3]
Darkness and doubt, it ain't nothin' new
Appalachian Gold gonna help me get through
Government man says it's a better day
Pissin' on my shoes, telling me there's rain
[Chorus]
And it's just my luck and it's just as well
Life ain't nothin' but a slow kill
[Bridge]
Too many good-hearted people livin' on the edge
Walkin' around like we're already dead
[Verse 4]
Day-in and day-out it's the same routine
It's no big joke in the American Dream
Bottles coming fast, don't break my fall
I just wanna feel somethin' at all
[Chorus]
And it's just my luck
And it's just as well
Life ain't nothin' but a slow kill
And it's just my luck and it's just as well
Life ain't nothin' but a slow kill
There's no such thing as a satisfied mind
And my heavy heart's hung out on a clothes line
Seems every day gets a little bit colder
And I know things are bad, things are bad all over
[Verse 2]
Hell is empty and the devil is Zeus
God loves a rich man and that's the gospel truth
And I'd ask Jesus to help me along
But tell me, what good's praying ever done?
[Chorus]
And it's just my luck and it's just as well
Life ain't nothin' but a slow kill
[Verse 3]
Darkness and doubt, it ain't nothin' new
Appalachian Gold gonna help me get through
Government man says it's a better day
Pissin' on my shoes, telling me there's rain
[Chorus]
And it's just my luck and it's just as well
Life ain't nothin' but a slow kill
[Bridge]
Too many good-hearted people livin' on the edge
Walkin' around like we're already dead
[Verse 4]
Day-in and day-out it's the same routine
It's no big joke in the American Dream
Bottles coming fast, don't break my fall
I just wanna feel somethin' at all
[Chorus]
And it's just my luck
And it's just as well
Life ain't nothin' but a slow kill
And it's just my luck and it's just as well
Life ain't nothin' but a slow kill
