You're Lucky To Be Alive

Braid


club starlight 
where your eyes 
round brown and shine 
darted out for the dimes 
in world record time
now it's time to give it to them 

it's a new dream
it's constant it's madly it's everything to me 
as the sun set on the set 
on the set ready set go 
go make a mess of the mystery 
of your perfect love history

and everyone knows your name 
and everyone knows we're the same 
you're lucky to be alive 

little bee stings and little happenings
they're all just silly things
they never made our scene interesting 
they never made it into a movie screening 

so hey love 
she darts in and out for the drinks tonight
she misses your eyes at club starlight
she'll be back and blue in the summertime 
together we'll ride wherever and forever

and you think you're insane 
a somebody else in a cruel game 
you're lucky to be alive
and everyone knows your name 
and everyone knows we're the same 
you're lucky to be alive

we're sick 
and we'll stay sick 
in this city 
at least you'll keep your distance
but keep me around
our heads in the clouds
both feet off the ground.
