Died for never ending love For a vindictive god For the hand I held And the inner peace I sought Died for secrets that I kept I died from the words you said Sometimes I'm dying For another cigarette But now's the time To be alive To be alive Now's the time To be alive To be alive I fell by the hands of love Died for reasons I forgot For the songs I wrote For beauty you are dreaming of Died for a stranger in my bed With a bullet in my head For a land that betrayed Always dying to get laid But now's the time To be alive To be alive Now's the time To be alive To be alive (Now's the time) I would even die for you I would if you asked me to But now is not the time Now's the time To be alive To be alive Now's the time To be alive To be alive (Now's the time)
