One Life

You feel that pressure in your chest You wonder how much time you have left You feel a lump in your throat Where did all the days go? A quarter to the life you bought Halfway through the drink you got Ready Player One Game Over, it’s done Everything moved faster than you thought But you’re alive tonight And we’re alive tonight You’ve got one life, play it well It sucks getting old or so I’m told But baby, don’t believe all you hear Get your ass off the couch Get out of the house You’re still young enough, my dear Remember the summer when you were sixteen? So beautiful and carefree The feelings when you first heard that song? Nostalgia’s a hell of a drug You’re alive tonight We’re alive tonight You’ve got one life, play it well Remember who you were Don’t forget who you are Remember hanging out with friends Don’t forget to see them again Remember to dance Put on your favorite pants Take this chance It may be the last you have You’re alive tonight We’re alive tonight You’ve got one life, play it well
