For the first time I feel good alone The sound of fire and the smell of summer The city's far and winter's gone It feels alright to be alive in songs
I've been so sick and I've been so tired Hospital beds and fucked up people I feel connected with their faults If you've been down... I love you all
I've been so scared of being scared I got so tired of being drunk My reputation lost it's goal Now I'm so serious about having fun
I wanna spend more time with my dogs Give me your keys and roll down your windows The spotlight ain't nothing but jive Don't drop me here let's drive all night
Business and numbers, emails and phones Cynicism and coke is killing hope
For the first time I feel good alone The sound of fire and the smell of summer The city's far and winter's gone It feels alright to be alive in songs
Maybe I'm sick, maybe I'm old I don't need you or anyone This city will never be my home But it feels alright to be alive tonight.
