We Felt Alive - The 88

There was nobody home so we ran upstairs

And you tore off your clothes and I sat and I stared

There’s a million and one things that I’d like to try

So we went to the top but we got much too high

At least we felt alive

We rolled like pigs in the mud

We left our worries behind

Yes, yes

And we couldn’t believe what we saw and we cared

But they’ll probably tell us that no one was there

With the gold in your teeth and a gleam in your eye

And the rays of the sun burn a hole through the sky

At least we felt alive

We rolled like pigs in the mud

We thumbed our noses at time

We threw our clothes in the dirt

We left our worries behind

I saw it so well

And I could tell we were alive

When the thoughts in your head get the upper hand

And your mom and your dad never understand

And you want them to know but you can’t even try

‘Cause they call you a thief while they’re rollin' their eyes

We rolled like pigs in the mud

We thumbed our noses at time

We threw our clothes in the dirt

We left our worries behind

We tossed our cares in the weeds

Our hearts beat right through our chests

With everything that we need

I have to say we were blessed

And I saw it so well

And I could tell we were alive
