I used to be so sure of things and self contained

I could carry on with no need to explain

It didn't matter if I ever made it home

Could go too fast and drink all night and dance alone

I loved to be alive

But I was not afraid to die

I loved to be alive

But I was not afraid to die

I've got everything to lose

I used to be so thoughtless, so easy and free

Could walk away, not think ahead and had no plans to keep

No hand to hold, no one to bring down with me

I wouldn't see the worst and it only hurts me

I loved to be alive

But I was not afraid to die

I've got everything to lose
