Without A Doubt
by: Voodoo BlueAs. You. You look at the life you're living and you fall down and CRY
And you look at the cards you're given and you don't, don't know WHY
GET UP, STAND UP, and tell them to their face
I look at the life I'm living now, and I make NO MISTAKES
Confidence beyond compare
And I'm not scared
I've come prepared
In the end
Without a doubt
You might try to shut me out
In turn I try to learn to apply
Without a doubt
You'll find what it's all about
Is life worth living?
Without a doubt
No matter how hard you TRY to justiFY
Just how the LAWS of NATURE APPLY
You'll be given LIFE ON A PLATE, but still I cannot RELATE
If I was you, I'd RATHER JUST DIE
Well, as you look at the life you're living and you fall down and cry and
You look at the cards you're given and you don't know why
You try to get up, stand up, and tell them to their face
I look at the life I'm living now, and I make no mistakes
Without a doubt
You might try to shut me out
In turn I try to learn to apply
Without a doubt
You'll find what it's all about
Is life worth living?
Without a doubt
Yeah, a prisoner in my skin
Yeah, I'm never fitting in
Without a doubt
You might try to shut me out
In turn I try to learn to apply
Without a doubt
You'll find what it's all about
Is life worth living?
Am I still breathing?
Without a doubt...
Without a doubt...
Without a doubt...
Without a doubt
Is life worth living?
Am I still breathing?
