Alive or Dead

The first thing that I heard

at six A.M.

the world's waking up

and coming in with a warrant

it's still not light

but I hope you're all set to go

cause you're going

either alive or dead

or in a million pieces wasting away

to watch it all fade to black

as it goes by the window take it away

it's another day

the last thing that I said

I was wishing for a bed

with my hands around my head

and last night on my breath

but it's all right

cause I'm ready and set to go

never respectable

but I'm going

either alive or dead

or in a million pieces wasting away

to watch it all fade to black

as it goes by the window take it away

it's another day
