Good to Be Alive Songtext
von Brendan Benson

I believe most definitely
In only that which I can see
And my senses and my self agree
There is no you there′s only me

I don't believe in heaven and hell, no
In fact there′s no plan as far as I can tell
It's every man for himself
It's only me there′s no one else

But after staying up for days
In a strong illicit haze
He said I′ve come back from the dead
Little puffs of smoke
From his mouth when he spoke
And this is what he said

It's good to be alive
It′s good to be alive
Be alive
It's good to be alive
Be alive


They haven′t found a cure for it, yeah
They're trying to I′m sure of it
The closest we'll ever get
Was filmed in a Hollywood set

On a hazy LA afternoon
Man on the moon
We came too close to the end
We'll never be the same again

And I′ve been searching for that hunger
That I knew when I was younger
But I was never satisfied
Now my body′s getting older
But my mind is aging slower
And I still feel young inside

It's good to be alive
It′s good to be alive
Be alive
It's good to be alive

Be alive
It′s good to be alive
Be alive
It's good to be alive
Be alive


Be alive (free your mind)
It′s good to be alive (be alive)
Be alive (free your mind)
It's good to be alive (be alive)
Be alive (free your mind) (because the music's strange)
It′s good to be alive (be alive) (because it feels so right)

Be alive (free your mind) (you can lose your mind because the music′s strange)
Be alive (be alive) (or you can stay alive because it feels so right)
Be alive (free your mind) (you can lose your mind because the music's strange)
Be alive (be alive) (or you can stay alive because it feels so right)
Be alive (free your mind) (you can lose your mind because the music′s strange)
Be alive (be alive) (or you can stay alive because it feels so right)
Be alive
