Lyrics

My entire life is a responsibility it takes everything from me, it gives [me] nothing my entire life is a furnace in which I have fallen and cooks me slowly

My entire life, a foolery my only property my entire life is a self-sacrifice which has neither meaning nor purpose

My entire life is a cigarette which I don't appreciate, yet I smoke and when it becomes a dogend, I'll offer it to Death when the time comes for me to meet him — Singer: Stelios Kazantzidis, Songwriter: Akis Panou, Composer: Akis Panou
