So earlier I had one of the un-ignorable fits of inspiration that took me flying down Hastings on the way to do my radio show. Written/Chorded/Recorded in about 90 mins total. Here’s to a very rough draft! Cheers.
THIS IS BEING ALIVE
It’s like running to catch a train
That you know you’ll never make
And then somehow
You just sail through the door
Or someone holds it open
Cause we can’t move mountains on our own
And that’s when
That’s when you know
This is being alive
When all the odds defied
When you jump and then you fly
You succeed after you try
You know you know
This is what is right
Your mission matches your life
(Your mission is your life)
And somehow
Simultaneously
I want to throw up
And swim the sea
Cause I could win at anything right now
This is more than being lucky
This is just believing something
And maybe
Maybe This time I’m just right
That man doesn’t believe in love
And that man can’t feel god In His blood
But I can and it always brings me home
And I think of
That feeling when you know
You’re doing something right
Maybe I’m just crazy
Maybe this is what it means
To be manic an uncontrolled
Living in dreams
But I don’t care that I can’t explain
And I don’t care what’s wrong with my brain
I’ve got a feeling
Oh oh oh
Had some well spent time
There’s peace under my eyes
And it shows
I feel like I have a glow
And I want the whole world to know
That were doing better everyday
Yes we are better every day
I’m on the wrong side of the street
And there’s needles on the ground around me
But I don’t care an I just wanna scream
How much I love everything
And I wanna cry
Cause I am more than happy inside
i'm on an adventure!
