Lyrics

[Verse 1] Sometimes, you wonder if we're ever lookin' back At a picture of 2019 And sayin', "That's the way, the world, it used to be Before our dreams started burstin' at the seams" We're out here and we're ready, we're here and we're ready To livestream the apocalypse I don't care if it's pretty, the view's so pretty From the deck of a sinkin' ship, yeah, oh [Pre-Chorus] 'Cause everything is lit except my serotonin, yeah Everything is lit but my lightning bolt brain Everything is lit [Chorus 1] But, baby, please, I just need someone to hold me Even though you don't even know me Oh, I'm goin' neon in the night-time Oh, what a time to be alive [Post-Chorus] What a time to be alive What a time to be alive What a time to be alive [Verse 2] They say that I should try meditation But I don't wanna be with my own thoughts (own thoughts) It never felt that much like medication And I just wanna be your cherry on top We're out here and we're ready, we're here and we're ready To livestream the apocalypse And I'm goin' on and on and on Make me like a charm on your necklace, oh, your necklace [Pre-Chorus] Oh, 'cause everything is lit except my serotonin, yeah Everything is lit but my lightning bolt brain Everything is lit [Chorus 1] But, baby, please, I just need someone to hold me (Someone to hold me, yeah) Even though you don't even know me Oh, I'm goin' neon in the night-time Oh, what a time to be alive [Post-Chorus] What a time to be alive What a time to be alive What a time to be alive [Bridge] What a time to be alive, to be alive [Guitar Solo] [Chorus 2] When, when, when I said, "Leave me alone", this isn't quite what I meant I got the quarantine blues, bad news, what's left? So, it seems the vulture's gettin' too full to fly, oh What a time to be alive [Post-Chorus] What a time to be alive What a time to be alive What a time to be alive [Outro] What a time to be alive (What a time, what a time to be alive) What a time to be alive (What a time, what a time to be alive) What a time to be alive (What a time, what a time to be alive) What a time to be alive Sometimes you wonder if we're ever lookin' back
