lyrics

Ups and downs, that's just how my life goes, depression and sorrow I've overdosed Now I hope that the worst is behind me, I weathered the storm and no-one ever helped me Nothing has ever been easy or free, middle-class whitey with not much money I was often on the rocks, But I've lived through it and have always heard this little vox that was telling me never to give up cuz the best would be coming up I've always been wild but lonely, like a stray cat in a city

All these past years I bit the dust, the lust for life as a co-pilot But now I always land on my feet, even when streets are badly lit Don't try to stand in my way, if I were you I'd keep away Every night I sharpen my claws, the cats obey their own laws

Engaged in a fight for independence, don't mess with me or I will make you shit your pants Don't lock me up inside or I'll kick you out, I get nervous when I feel trapped like a rat This cat's life doesn't have a place for mistakes, if you fuck up, there's no beefsteak Tomorrow may never come, I'm not waitin for any angels, just a phone call from my mom Many times I wonder if it'll get better/ sometimes freedom let me feel a little bitter My loneliness grows & my sorrow's stronger/ I gets me down but I get by without downer There is not much to expect from this life on earth / I've reached the abyss, there is no bliss The game is over when you know you're cursed/ I've reached the abyss, there is no bliss
