But I'm not complaining
It's filling me up
With new life
The stars in the sky
Bring tears to my eyes
They're lighting my way
Tonight
And I haven't felt so alive
In years
Just for a day
On a day like today
I'll get away from this
Constant debauchery
The wind in my hair
Makes me so aware
How good it is to live
Tonight
And I haven't felt so alive
In years
The moon
Is shining in the sky
Reminding me
Of so many other nights
But they're not like tonight
Oh God, it's raining
And I'm not containing
My pleasure at being
So wet
Here on my own
All on my own
How good it feels to be alone
Tonight
And I haven't felt so alive
In years
The moon
Is shining in the sky
Reminding me
Of so many other nights
When my eyes have been so red
I've been mistaken for dead
But not tonight
Oh God, it's raining But I'm not complaining It's filling me up With new life The stars in the sky Bring tears to my eyes They're lighting my way Tonight And I haven't felt so alive In years Just for a day On a day like today I'll get away from this Constant debauchery The wind in my hair Makes me so aware How good it is to live Tonight And I haven't felt so alive In years The moon Is shining in the sky Reminding me Of so many other nights But they're not like tonight Oh God, it's raining And I'm not containing My pleasure at being So wet Here on my own All on my own How good it feels to be alone Tonight And I haven't felt so alive In years The moon Is shining in the sky Reminding me Of so many other nights When my eyes have been so red I've been mistaken for dead But not tonight Explain Request ×
