Well, I'm alive
And it's good to be alive
When the summer rain comes in
I'll take it in my stride
I've got this thing that keeps me up at night
At one point in time I lost my mind and my sight
The shivers got the best of me
And there's another little plan in this mess why can't you see
It's getting cold outside, my nerves are tremblin'
Well, I'm alive
And it's good to be alive
When the summer rain comes in
I'll take it in my stride
Well, I'm alive
And it's good to be alive
When the summer rain comes in
I'll take it in my stride
I've got another set of troubles, you see
Because I write all day to escape my memories
And the drinking, smoking, and sleeping tight,
Makes me fit for a fight when I wake up in the night
I'm getting ready, now, my mind's exploding
Well, I'm alive
And it's good to be alive
When the summer rain comes in
I'll take it in my stride
Well, I'm alive
And it's good to be alive
When the summer rain comes in
I'll take it in my stride
The window's shut and the curtain's closed
And I'm s'posed to stay at home and I've got nowhere to go
And I'm pretty sure there's green lights down the road
But my car is towed and I'm hunting high and low
I'm getting ready now, my mind's all empty
Well, I'm alive
And it's good to be alive
When the summer rain comes in
I'll take it in my stride
Well, I'm alive
And it's good to be alive
When the summer rain comes in
I'll take it in my stride
