A Now for A Quick Interruption

(For you. You know who you are.)

Being Alive

Somebody hold me too close
Somebody hurt me too deep
Somebody sit in my chair
And ruin my sleep
And make me aware
Of being alive
Make me alive

Somebody need me too much
Somebody know me too well
Somebody pull me up short
And put me through hell
And give me support
For being alive
Make me alive
Make me alive

Make me confused
Mock me with praise
Let me be used
Vary my days

But alone
Is alone,
Not alive

Somebody crowd me with love,
Somebody force me to care
Somebody make me come through
I'll always be there,
As frightened as you
To help us survive
Being alive
