Southpaw - Life is romantic

Life is romantic
When you sleep
With the gun underneath
Your ex-lover's blanket
Isn't that unique?

Life is fantastic
At 4 am
On the night tram
But your mind is elastic
After two more grams

Life is outstanding
When you have it in your hands
But then later
It depends
On a certain circumstance

Life is a road where
The traffic lights
Don't give up the fight
And you are almost there
But still you're out of sight
