Anti-Depressive Delivery - Alive lyrics

Ever since I was a little boy A song has been spinning in my head Slips away each time I start to sing And turns into another one instead Drives me crazy The day will never come, that's for sure When there's nothing left to learn Whenever you think you're on track Might be the time for a U-turn Crazy race Feels like my mind is crippled in the cool morning breeze Easy to choose when there's no possibilities Sure as snow will not pile up in hell Changes sometimes must be made It might cost you a friend or two But then again, you always lose a few And it's always worth it There's a guy that I once knew Evil as hell, and mighty stupid too Riding his horse out in the desert Almost out of water, in the burning sun A hundred miles from home, alone in the desert Hours went by And they came to a waterhole And before the man got down, the horse drank it dry Evil Joe got mad as hell Spitting and swearing Pulled out his gun And shot his horse dead in the desert Evil Joe didn't make it home All they found was a pile of bones All of his family Were happy as can be Looking for reasons to stay where you don't want to be Is like looking for windfallen fruit in December You are no longer living, you only continue to be Doing things that you don't even want to remember So many people gone blind Looking for things they just couldn't find Truth can't be found in the eyes of a hypocrite I used to be a disciple myself For too many years to count Almost cost me my life to get out of it After all these years, my straitjacket's gone And it's such a relief To wash away all the anger and grief And you know, being naked Makes it easier to conceive I got it made like you would not believe Looking back, it appears There's been too many wasted years No time for regrets and there's no use in tears, So I've buried the past, and the grave is my stage And this is where I belong So I just keep on singing my song Cause I'm too old to die young anyway The never ending quest For the song that keeps slipping away Is the only reason I'm around today And I'm here to stay As long as the music keeps coming my way And if there's no tomorrow, I'll see you the following day
