It's good to be alive Take everyday in your stride You can go out just like a light So grab someone you love tonight and sing It's good to be alive Take everyday in your stride You can go out just like a light So grab someone you love tonight and sing It's good to be alive So good to be alive It's good to be alive It's good to be alive It's good to be alive It's good to be alive It's good to be alive Grab someone you love tonight and sing It's good to be alive Take everyday in your stride You can go out just like a light So grab someone you love tonight and sing It's good to be alive Take everyday in your stride You can go out just like a light So grab someone you love tonight and sing It's good to be alive So good to be alive So good to be alive

Anywhere but Here 03:00
lyrics

You think they’re coming but they ain’t You think they’re waiting at the gate You think they’re driven by hate Nobody’s being straight with ya Everybody’s out to deceive And nobody believes A single word you say They all think you’re insane So you’re losing your grip You’re starting to slip You’re getting swallowed in the abyss Of your subconsciousness So you’re losing your mind You’re running out of time But you’re oblivious to how it feels ‘Cause to you it’s all real So you’re armed with a one way ticket and your last cigarette Focused on nothing, but getting away from the fear Anywhere but here You don’t know which way to turn Strangers show you concern Causing more uncertainty As there sympathy burns They know you’re losing your grip They know you’re starting to slip Falling deeper in the abyss Of your subconsciousness Further out of your mind Further out of time You’re still oblivious to the way it feels ‘Cause to you it’s all real And still armed with that one way ticket and your last cigarette You’re running in circles trying to get away from the fear Anywhere but here Clutching on to that one way ticket and your last cigarette Running in circles trying to get away from the fear Anywhere but here

Gotta Be Real 03:00
lyrics

( Let the beat move ya body , let the beat move ya soul Let the beat move ya body , let the beat move ya soul Beat move ya body , let the beat move ya soul Let the beat move ya body , yeah ) If I wasn't to stiff to dance I could have taken my chance at becoming a pop star I could be up on that stage Outta this cage, living the life of Riley If I wasn't to sad to smile When I was younger you'd be digging my style You'd be screaming my name I'd be lost in my fame But would I be happy ? It's gotta be real It's gotta have feel If I've got nothing to say I say nothing If I'd have made it to the top I probably would have stopped making music So I'd have enough time to spend my money If I'd have kept it all bubble gum and cheese Just to please them I could have been easier To reach that goal But I'd have lost my soul It's gotta be real It's gotta have feel If I've got nothing to say I say nothing It's gotta be real It's gotta have feel If I've got nothing to say I say nothing It's gotta be real It's gotta have feel If I've got nothing to say I say nothing It's gotta be real It's gotta have feel If I've got nothing to say I say nothing

Sleeping 03:56
lyrics

Waiting for something that's already gone You long for that prize that's already been won You sit by the phone but it's already rung While you were sleeping You open the window and look up the street Where's all the people that promised to meet you ? Sorry to tell you but they already knocked your door While you were sleeping You throw on some shoes and you head to the station You get to the office to show off your creation You find out they've already picked out the best of the bunch While you were sleeping You could have gone so far if you were more awake It's just a bitter pill your gonna have to take You could have done so much If you weren't sleeping If you'd have only seen a little more daylight You could have brought those genius thoughts to life You could have had it all If you weren't sleeping You set your alarm and you hatch out a plan You put all your faith on a second chance Hoping to make them all understand Why you were sleeping You turn up early and you plead your case But all they see are the lines on your face And you can't believe how many years you wasted sleeping You could have gone so far if you were more awake It's just a bitter pill your gonna have to take You could have done so much If you weren't sleeping If you'd have only seen a little more daylight You could have brought those genius thoughts to life You could have had it all If you weren't sleeping Wakey-wakey 'cause you're gonna miss that boat again Wakey-wakey 'cause you're gonna miss that boat again Wakey-wakey 'cause you're gonna miss that boat again If you're sleeping Wakey-wakey 'cause you're gonna miss that boat again Wakey-wakey 'cause you're gonna miss that boat again Wakey-wakey 'cause you're gonna miss that boat again If you're sleeping You could go so far now that you're more awake You've had enough of the pills you wanna taste the cake You can do so much Now you're not sleeping Now that you're seeing every minute of pure daylight You're gonna bring those genius thoughts to life You can have it all Now You're not sleeping
