[Intro]
Life's an awful mess, a bit like sleeping with my ex
It's an arrow to the chest
[Verse 1]
I'm not gonna lie, it kinda feels like we're gonna die
We'll never make it out of here alive
We couldn't make it out if we tried, if we tried
[Pre-Chorus]
But if you know it's all a really sick joke
Then you can never really be sad about it
You're happier the less that you know
We're all fucked so just laugh about it
[Chorus]
Life's an awful mess, a bit like sleeping with my ex
It's an arrow to the chest, oh, no, checkmate again
Brought a sword to a pillow fight
And from my back, you pulled your knife
A wonderful life, overrated at best
Life's an awful, wonderful mess
[Verse 2]
I'm not gonna lie, I can't look away from the fire
'Cause someone set my ego alight
She said the call is coming from the inside, what a lie
[Pre-Chorus]
But if you know it's all a really sick joke
Then you can never really be sad about it
You're happier the less that you know
We're all fucked so just laugh about it
[Chorus]
Life's an awful mess, a bit like sleeping with my ex
It's an arrow to the chest, oh, no, checkmate again
Brought a sword to a pillow fight
And from my back, you pulled your knife
A wonderful life, overrated at best
Life's an awful, wonderful mess
[Bridge]
It's a mess, it's a mess, a big fucking mess
What a pretty mess, you'll get used to living
Arrow to the chest, you'll get used to living
[Chorus]
Life's an awful mess, a bit like sleeping with my ex
It's an arrow to the chest, oh, no, checkmate again
Brought a sword to a pillow fight
And from my back, you pulled your knife
A wonderful life, overrated at best
Life's an awful, wonderful, spectacularly terrible
Life's an awful, wonderful mess

‘Life’s An Awful Mess’ is about the contradictory nature of life, and how it can be so terrible in one moment and magical in the next. It’s also about accepting the inevitable finality that life will face and realising that it’s all not that serious when you take a step back. We’re all doing our bes...
