My Life’s Work Lyrics by Paperfriend

Rebuild / Recover - EP

2021

[Verse 1]
As soon as you got your hands on it
I knew that it changed the dynamic
You put your personal stamp on it
Which is fine, it's what I expected
But everything is changing
The brush strokes are fading
And all my paint is staining the canvas
It's wasted
[Chorus]
But when my life's work was out there
You didn't seem to care
I spent my time and money
Now it's in disrepair
[Post Chorus]
Whoa-oh-oh oh-oh-oh-oh
Whoo-oh-oh-oh-oh
Whoa-oh-oh oh-oh-oh-oh
Whoo-oh-oh-oh-oh
[Verse 2]
You made it more complex
And ousted the weak link
You changed up the order
And straightened the leaning
It started off perfect and everything was fine
But you didn't care if it was my money on the line
[Chorus]
But when my life's work was out there
You didn't seem to care
I spent my time and money
Now it's in disrepair
[Post Chorus]
Whoa-oh-oh oh-oh-oh-oh
Whoo-oh-oh-oh-oh
Whoa-oh-oh oh-oh-oh-oh
Whoo-oh-oh-oh-oh
[Verse 3]
But everything is changing
The brush strokes are fading
And all my paint is staining the canvas
It's wasted
[Chorus]
But when my life's work was out there
You didn't seem to care
I spent my time and money
Now it's in disrepair
But when my life's work was out there
You didn't seem to care
I spent my time and money
Now it's in disrepair
[Post Chorus]
Whoa-oh-oh oh-oh-oh-oh
Whoo-oh-oh-oh-oh
Whoa-oh-oh oh-oh-oh-oh
Whoo-oh-oh-oh-oh
Whoa-oh-oh oh-oh-oh-oh
Whoo-oh-oh-oh-oh
Whoa-oh-oh oh-oh-oh-oh
Whoo-oh-oh-oh-oh
