I don't want to be lonely anymore
I don't want to fail at reaching out
For something more
This life is tough but I'm alive and well
Won't it ever be enough?
I don't want to say the things
That my father said
And I don't want to lose the dream
To raise a family instead
Would it really be so bad
If this is all I'll ever be
Alive and well, oh, what the hell
It's good enough for me
Who do I think I'm fooling
I'm like a child who throws a coin into the well
As if to buy my fate and fool myself
To believe that I'm something more
Than alive and well
I don't want to be, I don't want to be
I don't want to be, I don't want to be
I don't know what they expect of me
But I wanna leave a new legacy
There's more to life than what my father said
Just stay ahead of your final breath
Life is tough, that's what they try to say
But I'm gonna live it another way
I'm not buying what they're trying to sell
That it's heaven or hell
It's hard to tell, that I die each day
Alive and well
Alive and well
Alive and well
