Lyrics of Life being what it is

You put a note in my pocket said, "be good to yourself "
And that was all

Life being what it is, we all dream of revenge
Open your eyes for a second just to roll them at me
I stared straight into the sun, something to concentrate on

And if you turn it on you'd find i've written you a thousand times
You would do anything, you'd give up everything for god knows why

I just can't stay till you're gone, i won't wish you well
I won't see you off, i won't try to call if i see you in my mind
I'll say to you it's not your fault

You said, "i'll see you in september", but that's not long enough for me
You put a note in my pocket so it would take care of me but that was all
