Lyrics Good to Be Alive - Brendan Benson

Good to Be Alive

Well, I believe most definitely
In only that which I can see
And my senses and myself agree
There is no you, there’s only me
And 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
And after staying 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 (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
And they haven’t found a cure for it yet
But they’re trying to, I’m sure of it
And the closest we’ll ever get
Was filmed on a Hollywood set
On a hazy L.A. 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
And I was never satisfied
Now my body’s getting older
But my brain is ageing slower
And I still feel young inside
Oh, 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 (be alive)
It’s good to be alive (be alive)
Be alive (be alive)
It’s good to be alive (be alive)
Be alive (be alive)
It’s good to be alive (be alive)
Be alive
Stay alive
Be alive
Stay alive
Be alive
Stay alive
Be alive
