Alive Today(Can't Complain) Lyrics

Silent and discreet, she's a lonely gal
Works on Wall Street though she's looking for a quick way out
Hovering up high up with the stars above downtown
Since they took our skyline down
All your days seem useless now
On the streets life faded
la la la la la
la la la la la
Alive today, I can't complain
la la la la la
la la la la la
It's all the ways 'cos life's like a double edged sword
A double edged sword
I've got a friend who's weak, he wants to be a star
Still I'm the one that wishes I can change the way it was
Don't mean to sound so bleak
He's wanting in, I'm wanting out
Can't get back those years, no how
They've all disappeared with the crowds
Is it better to burn out?
la la la la la
la la la la la
Alive today, I can't complain
la la la la la
la la la la la
It's all the ways 'cos life's like a double edged sword
A double edged sword
A double edged sword
As part of the daylight fading you
You blues and your blacks turn grey they do
It's all too easy you just figure it out
The simple things in life I admire in mine
la la la la la
la la la la la
Alive today, I can't complain
la la la la la
la la la la la
It's all the ways 'cos life's like a double edged sword
A double edged sword
