Sometimes good guys get no credit
And bad guys get all the breaks
And you get that house you wanted
But it's just more empty space

The happy couple you look up to
Is getting a divorce
Your ex is dating your best friend
And you can tell he loves her more
And I'm not trying be all doom and gloom

Sometimes shit just happens
Worse than you can imagine
Stop trying to make it make sense
Sometimes shit just happens
There's no real deeper meaning
Let me save you the suspense
Sometimes shit just happens
And you learn to live with it

By all means, find the silver lining
Make good out of the bad
But don't tell me there's a reason
That somebody lost their dad

Yeah, I know it's hard to swallow
That no one's in control
No matter how you try and steer it
Life's gonna throw you off
And I'm not trying to be all doom and gloom

But sometimes shit just happens
Worse than you can imagine
Stop trying to make it make sense
Sometimes shit just happens
There's no real deeper meaning
Let me save you the suspense
Sometimes shit just happens

You might get cheated
Get lost and defeated
Find yourself looking for the cause of your pain
But there's not always someone or something to blame

Sometimes shit just happens
Worse than you can imagine
Stop trying to make it make sense
Sometimes shit just happens
There's no real deeper meaning
Let me save you the suspense
Sometimes shit just happens
And you learn to live with it
