How many times have you been pushed around?   Was anybody there? Does anybody care?   And how many times have your friends let you down?   Was anybody there? Did anybody stare?      And how many times have your friends let you down?   Just open up your heart, just open up your mind   And how many times has your faith slipped away?   Well is anybody safe? Does anybody pray?      Oh life is waiting for you   It's all messed up but we're alive   Oh life is waiting for you   It's all messed up but we'll survive      And how many days have you just slept away?   Is everybody high? Is everyone afraid?   And how many times have you wished you were strong?   Have they ever seen your heart? Have they ever seen your pain?      Oh life is waiting for you   It's all messed up but we're alive   Oh life is waiting for you   It's all messed up but we'll survive      She gets high, she gets lost   She gets drowned by the cost   Twice a day, every week   And all her life      She gets high, she gets lost   She gets drowned by the cost   Twice a day, every week   And all her life      Life is waiting for you   It's all messed up but we're alive   Oh life is waiting for you   It's all messed up but we'll survive      Oh life is waiting for you   It's all messed up but we're alive   Oh life is waiting for you   It's all messed up but we're alive      It's all messed up but we'll survive   It's all messed up but we're alive   It's all messed up but I will, I will survive
