Lyrics:
Alive And Kicking
ALIVE AND KICKING
(Words and music by Paul Otten)
IT'S BEEN A LONG DAY
IT'S TRIED TO SPEND ME
I CRACKED MY HARD HEAD IN IT'S STAMPEDE
IT PUNISHED MY HOPE
TRIED TO CUT MY ROPE
OVER EXTEND ME
THROUGH THE HEADWIND
SPEEDING SLOWLY
FLYING BLINDED
BUT UNRELENTING
GONNA FIND MY WAY HOME
AND REST MY BONES
AND LEAVE IT ALL BEHIND ME
CHORUS
I'M NEVER A LONG TIME ON THE MEND
WITH ALL THESE LIGHTS TO GUIDE ME IN
DESPITE EVERY UPHILL BATTLE
I'M ALIVE AND KICKING
WITH EVERY HEADACHE GUNNING FOR ME
A REMEDY LIES IN THE WINGS WAITING
EVERY SHIFTY EYE AND TRIAL BY FIRE
UNDERESTIMATES ME
CHORUS
THROUGH THE HEADWIND
SPEEDING SLOWLY
FLYING BLINDED
BUT UNRELENTING
GONNA HEAD ON HOME
TO THE ONES I KNOW
CHORUS
