"Just To Feel Alive" lyrics

"Just To Feel Alive"

I broke my back trying to fight this
I will break my own heart and go in there
Home, I will go
Alone, I will be
That's the life for me
Oh yeah, that's the life for me

I think I do, but I don't
Oh and he thinks he will, but he won't
Maybe he would paint me
Maybe I would write for him
And maybe we might
Oh yeah, maybe we might

How many call themselves lovers
When really creatures of the night?
Oh and I only do this in my selfish skin
Just to feel alive, oh yeah just to feel alive

Oh and I went home with a winner
Oh and he went home with a cheat
Wrapped himself around me
I nearly died
That's the life for me
Oh yeah, that's the life for me

How many call themselves lovers
When really creatures of the night?
Oh and I only do this in my selfish skin
Just to feel alive, oh yeah just to feel alive
Oh yeah just to feel alive
Oh yeah just to feel alive
