How many times have you been pushed around?
Is anybody there? Does anybody care?
How many times have your friends let you down?
Is anybody there? Did anybody stare?
And how many times have your friends let you down?
Just open up your heart, just open up your mind
And how many times has your face slipped away?
Well, is anybody safe? Does anybody pray?

Oh life, is waiting for you
It's all messed up but we're alive
Oh life, is waiting for you
It's all messed up but we'll survive
Do do dodododo do do, do do do, do do dodododo do do, do do do

And how many days have you just slept away?
Is everybody high? Is everyone afraid?
And how many times have you wished you were strong?
Have they ever seen your heart? Have they ever seen your pain?

Oh life, is waiting for you
It's all messed up but we're alive
Oh life, is waiting for you
It's all messed up but we'll survive

She gets high, she gets lost, she gets drowned by the cops
Twice a day, every week, and all alive

She gets high, she gets lost, she gets drowned by the cops
Twice a day, every week, and all alive

Life, is waiting for you
It's all messed but we're alive
Oh life, is waiting for you
It's all messed up but we'll survive

Oh life, is waiting for you
It's all messed but we're alive
Oh life, is waiting for you
It's all messed up but we're alive
It's all messed up but we're still alive
It's all messed up but we're all alive
It's all messed up but I will, I will, survive
