What A Time To Be Alive

Cruel world, cruel love, everyone’s evil Happy couples and friends shouting what a time to be alive Yet for us, outsiders, it’s all cold, no one cares enough No friends, no love, just darkness, What a time to be alive, yeah right. What a time to be alive, when the sun don’t shine, Every smile feels like a crime, Memories flood, but they don’t feel right, I miss your laughter, the warmth of our nights. Remember late nights, those city lights, our dreams? Dancing in the rain, or so it seems, Now I walk alone down these empty streets, Echoes of us, just shadows, bittersweet. What a time to be alive, when the sun don’t shine, Every smile feels like a crime, Memories flood, but they don’t feel right, I miss your laughter, the warmth of our nights. Scrolling through photos, laughing, carefree, Now I'm just lost in this memory, I thought love was forever, but I was naïve, Now I’m just broken, trying to believe. You said we’d conquer the world, hand in hand, But now I’m just lost in this empty land, Late-night drives turned into ghostly rides, What happened to us? I can’t hide. What a time to be alive, when the sun don’t shine, Every smile feels like a crime, Memories flood, but they don’t feel right, I miss your laughter, the warmth of our nights. Cruel world, cruel love, we were just a phase, Now I’m left wondering in this smoky haze, What a time to be alive, when it’s all a fight, Lost in the dark, wishing for the light
