[Verse 1]
These days are full of darkness
I should be thankful I can breathe
Every man is in his castle
And all our nights are crimson dreams

[Chorus]
And I keep thinking what a waste of a life
You only get one, right?
And I keep thinking how it tastes to be alive
You're so lucky, my God
You're so lucky, my God

[Verse 2]
These days are fading faster
And I don't practice what I preach
I sit here, waiting for disaster
To come and sweep me off my feet

[Chorus]
And I keep thinking what a waste of a life
You only get one, right?
And I keep thinking how it tastes to be alive
You're so lucky, my God
I keep thinking what a waste of a life
You only get one, right?
And I keep thinking how it tastes to be alive
You're so lucky, my God
You're so lucky, my God
[Bridge]
Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh
Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh
Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh
Ooh
It's like I can hardly reach out
And lift my voice loudly
And summon the part of me
That could have done something worthwhile
If only I got out of my head
Could you say of yourself this time?
I gave everything to it
I gave everything to it
I gave everything to it

[Chorus]
And I keep thinking what a waste of a life
You only get one, right?
And I keep thinking how it tastes to be alive
You're so lucky, my God
You're so lucky, my God
