Good to Be Alive Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Learning how to swim but the lands are dry
Feeling like a shark, If I stop I'll die
Things are lit and the bird’s on fire
Underneath the buzz of the telephone wire

[Pre-Chorus]
All my friends are doing fine
While I'm looking for a sign
Is this body even mine?
Feels good to be alive but I hate my life

[Chorus]
So tied up and tired of this self-inflicted fight
In spite of, I light up, to lose my demons inside
Tell myself I'm fine while I’m looking for a sign
Is this body even mine?
Feels good to be alive but I hate my life

[Verse 2]
Lost big dreams that i really don't need
Everything I love is gonna find a way to leave
Got good friends that i never can see
Always on the run while my plans are free

[Pre-Chorus]
I been staying up all night
Shaking needles out my spine
But the doctor says I'm fine
Feels good to be alive but I hate my life

[Chorus]
So tied up and tired of this self-inflicted fight
In spite of, I light up, to lose my demons inside
Tell myself I'm fine while I'm looking for a sign
Is this body even mine?
Feels good to be alive but I hate my life

[Verse 1]
Learning how to swim but the lands are dry
Feeling like a shark, If I stop I'll die
Things are lit and the bird’s on fire
Underneath the buzz of the telephone wire

[Pre-Chorus]
All my friends are doing fine
While I'm looking for a sign
Is this body even mine?
Feels good to be alive but I hate my life

[Chorus]
So tied up and tired of this self-inflicted fight
In spite of, I light up, to lose my demons inside
Tell myself I'm fine while I’m looking for a sign
Is this body even mine?
Feels good to be alive but I hate my life

[Verse 2]
Lost big dreams that i really don't need
Everything I love is gonna find a way to leave
Got good friends that i never can see
Always on the run while my plans are free

[Pre-Chorus]
I been staying up all night
Shaking needles out my spine
But the doctor says I'm fine
Feels good to be alive but I hate my life

[Chorus]
So tied up and tired of this self-inflicted fight
In spite of, I light up, to lose my demons inside
Tell myself I'm fine while I'm looking for a sign
Is this body even mine?
Feels good to be alive but I hate my life

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.
