Lyrics and translation
Original
I had a rough start, and I was late coming into the game
That don't mean too much when every day is the same
So you do what you do, or at least until you're doing it well
They say you get what you give and that's true as far as I can tell
What a hell of a vice and it really is funny
Such as a life so cruel but sweeter than honey
What a joke, and oh my God, hell isn't everything
Speaking of hell, where the hell have you been?
I thought I heard you knocking, but you never came in
Oh, what a joke and, oh my God, but is heaven listening?
Is heaven listening?
I had a close call, and I thought it'd be the ending of me
My head was caught in the clouds and my heart kept skipping the beat
But you do what you can to keep what you've been doing it for
Then you're hoping the next one opens as you're closing the door
What a hell of a vice and it really is funny
Such as a life so cruel but sweeter than honey
What a joke, and oh my God, hell isn't everything
Speaking of hell, where the hell have you been?
I thought I heard you knocking, but you never came in
Oh, what a joke and, oh my God, but is heaven listening?
Is heaven listening?
'Cause I'm calling out, but you haven't called me back at all
It's called doubt, I'm guessing that you called it off
I'm calling out, but you haven't called me back at all
It's called doubt, I'm guessing that you called it off
Call it off
What a hell of a vice and it really is funny
Such as a life so cruel but sweeter than honey
What a joke, and oh my God, hell isn't everything
Speaking of hell, where the hell have you been?
I thought I heard you knocking, but you never came in
Oh, what a joke and, oh my God, but is heaven listening?
Is heaven listening?
