Everybody needs a little
Something special
Once in a little while
It's not enough
To watch the world go by
Everybody's losing sleep
Brooding on their mortality
But why?
Suffice to say
We'll make it through the night
Everybody wants to feel alive
Everybody wants to feel alive
Told me to be
All that I could be
But I don't see
How it applies to me
Everybody's trying to survive
Everybody needs to feel
A little special
A little more admired
Is the fame supposed
To help you sleep at night?
Everybody needs a little
Voice to tell them
"It's all alright
Maybe we'll all make it
Through the night"
Everybody wants to feel alive
Everybody wants to feel alive
Told me to be
All that I could be
But I don't see
How it applies to me
Everybody's trying to survive
Everybody's trying to survive
Everybody wants to feel alive
(I'm running on and on)
Everybody wants to feel alive
They told me it was easy
(I'm running on and on)
Everybody wants to feel alive
They told me it was easy
(I'm running on and on)
Everybody wants to feel alive
They told me it was easy
(I'm running on and on)
Everybody wants to feel alive
They told me it was easy
Told me to be
All that I could be
But fuck that
