Lyrics

Sometime it's pain, sometime 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
Hurried deception gleans 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 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 wanna 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 moment passed you by
This day is ours, don't let it die
Don't let it die, don't let it die
