Sometimes it's pain   Sometimes it's hollow   Never the same   It'll change you tomorrow   The sadness   Doesn't matter when it's gone   Girl in a red dress   Passes you by   A hurried deception   Glean to her eye   Like the weather will not hurt her   When she's wrong   You say you feel all broke and discarded   What's on your mind, baby?   You know you'll get on well   Once you've started   Over again   This day is alive   This day is alive   This day is alive   Take another chance if a turn for disaster   Is the best thing for you   Oh, the difference is the lies   I've told are true   Do not tell your father   The thoughts you've been thinking   They'll burn him too long   After all it's the dream that holds up the sun   Yeah, you want to have something that's real   Well, give it some time, baby   You're all wrapped up in the words   You're repeating over again   This day is alive   This day is alive   This day is alive   So now you tell me   What you're gonna do to me   You got a lot on your mind, baby   You go so much that'll get through to me   Without telling me lies   You say you wanna stand up for something, alright...   What's on your mind, baby   Oh, you could stand here for nothing   Or start it again   Start it again   This day is alive   This day is alive   This day is alive
