Creed - What's This Life For? Lyrics






Hurray for a child
That makes it through
If there's any way
Because the answer lies in you
They're laid to rest
Before they've known just what to do
Their souls are lost
Because they could never find

What's this life for

I see your soul, it's kind of gray
You see my heart, you look away
You see my wrist, I know your pain
I know your purpose on your plane
Don't say a last prayer

Because you could never find

What's this life for

But they ain't here anymore
Don't have to settle the score
Cause we all live
Under the reign of one king

But they ain't here anymore,
Don't have to settle no Goddamn score
'Cause we all live under the reign,
I said, you know, of

One king [x3]

But they ain't here anymore,
Don't have to settle no Goddamn score
'Cause we all live under the reign
I said, you know, of

One king [x3]

But they ain't here anymore,
Don't have to settle no Goddamn score
Cause we all live under the reign
Of one king

    I know your purpose on your plane
    Don't say a last prayer

    You could never findWhat's this life for? What's this life for?
    What's this life for? What's this life for?But they ain't here anymore

    Thanks.

    This song is everything rn

  26. D.... S....

    einer der besten Songs. Scheissegal was gesagt wird, Creed ist und bleibt eine meiner Lieblingsbands der 90er

  27. L.... M....

    You see my wrist...I know your pain...so is he implying he attempted suicide?

    L.... M....

    I heard that comment on the Q and A board at creed.com, and i must not have mentioned it in my post, but I am aware on why he wrote it this way. I know that it is similar to how Jesus acted while he was on the cross asking his father why he did not save him while they nailed him to the cross. Mark Tremonti and Scott Stapp were probably feeling a little bit of the same thing after hearing that their friend had commited suicide, and asking why God did not save him from himself.

  28. M.... C....

    Alguém em 2019???? ❤👌👏

    Fans from 🇮🇩 absen, 18 - 11 - 2019

  36. M.... L....

    This would have been his second best song if he had not taken the Lord's name in vain on it. Very disappointing. My Own Prison is his best in my opinion.

  37. E.... J....

    I want each and everyone of you to go out and hug someone you know is in need. All we have is each other. ❤️

    Get on your knees and pray and ask for forgiveness to the king of King's and Lord of Lord's are savior Jesus Christ the alpha and the omega the beginning and the ending the first and the last he is the only way and he is comeing read his words the Bible the only book that foretold everything to come and has been a 100% right

  41. h.... m....

    Wonder how many people don't know about Scott Stapp's solo albums? If you don't,, check them out, they are great.

  42. R.... P....

    Thanks for the censorship YouTube (aka Google): my existence would have been otherwise horribly SCARRED on listening to the full lyrics of the song. Thanks! Really. Thanks.

  43. M.... R....

    Creed have lot of good lyric that can change human life into better way. Life is nothing without having faith believe in Jesus Christ that can gave eternal life

    Deuteronomio 18:10

    Que no haya en medio de ti nadie que haga pasar a su hijo o a su hija por el fuego; que nadie practique encantamientos o consulte a los astros; que no haya brujos ni hechiceros;

    11 que no se halle a nadie que se dedique a supersticiones o consulte los espíritus; que no se halle ningún adivino o quien pregunte a los muertos.

    12 Porque Yavé aborrece a los que se dedican a todo esto, y los expulsa delante de ti a causa de estas abominaciones.


    Deuteronomy 18:10

    Let there be no one in the midst of you to cause your son or daughter to pass through the fire; let no one practice enchantments or consult the stars; that there be no sorcerers or sorcerers;

    11 that no one is found who engages in superstitions or consult the spirits; that no fortune-teller or anyone who asks the dead be found.

    12 For the Lord hates those who engage in all this, and drives them out before you because of these abominations.
