Life Worth Living Lyrics

[Intro: Majid Al Maskati]
Ooh-ooh
Ooh-ooh, ooh, ooh
Ooh, ooh, ooh

[Verse 1: Majid Al Maskati]
Waking up in a loveless bed
Still hanging on the thing you said
Liar, walking on a wire on fire
No one's getting out alive

[Pre-Chorus: Majid Al Maskati]
You gave me your word in bad faith (Oh, oh)
You cut me as the clock turns red (Oh, oh)
Sipping on the blood you bled, stranger asking for a favor, danger
Never let 'em see you cry, oh, oh, oh

[Chorus: Majid Al Maskati]
Hard times
After everything I've given
I only want a life worth living
I only want a life worth living, oh, oh, oh
Hard times
Tears in your soft white linen
I only want a life worth living
I only want a life worth living
[Verse 2: Majid Al Maskati]
I wake up in a real dark place
Regretting evеry choice I made
Riot, nevеr see the day, I'm tired
Feel like I'm a living lie, I gave you my word in bad faith
And you deserve the love you get
People know you from your silhouette
Hollow, living on time you borrow
Never let you see me cry, oh, oh, oh

[Chorus: Majid Al Maskati]
Hard times
After everything I've given
I only want a life worth living
I only want a life worth living, oh, oh, oh
Hard times
Tears in your soft white linen
I only want a life worth living
I only want a life worth living

[Post-Chorus: Majid Al Maskati]
Only want a life, only want a life
Only want a life worth living
Only want a life, only want a life
Only want a life worth
[Pre-Chorus: Majid Al Maskati]
Don't tell me you heard about thing (Oh, oh)
You cut me as the clock turns red (Oh, oh)
Sipping on the blood you bled
Stranger asking for a favor, danger
Never let 'em see you cry, oh, oh, oh

[Chorus: Majid Al Maskati]
Hard times
After everything I've given
I only want a life worth living
I only want a life worth living, oh, oh, oh
Hard times
Tears in your soft white linen
I only want a life worth living
I only want a life worth living

[Post-Chorus: Majid Al Maskati]
Only want a life, only want a life
Only want a life worth living
Only want a life, only want a life
Only want a life worth living

[Outro: Majid Al Maskati]
Ooh-ooh
Ooh-ooh, ooh, ooh
Ooh, ooh, ooh

What did Majid Jordan say about "Life Worth Living"?
Genius Answer

I think this one is going to be a sleeper weird song that comes back in our career later down the road. Just something about the content of the lyrics: ‘What is a life worth? What is a life that we consider worth living?’ There’s some interesting lyrics in the verses—‘you deserve the love you get, people know you from your silhouette, hollow living on time you borrow’—everyone’s kind of had those feelings of just like emptiness, but they’re being recognised as how they’re being perceived and dealing with that. We all just want to get over that and enjoy life.
