True to Life Lyrics


I can only sing it loud
Always try to sing it clear
What the hell are we all doing here
Making too much of nothing
Or creating one unholy mess
An unfair study in survival, I guessBut it always comes down to
What to do when it's all around you
And this tight wire act leaving us here forDead to news of the world and liquor piles up ahead
Dodging those with words of power forever on their breath
When the quality of life gets tripped up and strangled like death
It seems it's getting harder out there
Especially without time enough to seeTrue to life is another hangover
True to life is more and more politics
True to life is always having to look over your shoulder
True to life is assembly-line sicknessBut it always comes down to
What to do when it's all around you
And this tight wire act leaving us here forDead to news of the world and liquor piles up ahead
Dodging those with words of power forever on their breath

When the quality of life gets tripped up and strangled like death
It seems it's getting harder out there
Especially without time enough to see

Enjoy the lyrics !!!

Uncle Tupelo was an alternative country music group from Belleville, Illinois, active between 1987 and 1994. Jay Farrar, Jeff Tweedy, and Mike Heidorn formed the band after the lead singer of their previous band, The Primitives, left to attend college. The trio recorded three albums for Rockville Records, before signing with Sire Records and expanding to a five-piece. Shortly after the release of the band's major label debut album Anodyne, Farrar announced his decision to leave the band due to a soured relationship with his co-songwriter Tweedy.
