What do you do when you're alone Do you contemplate death sitting at home Or do you think about suicide Cause your soul has already died What do you do when you're alive Do you idle for warmth while you wait to die What do you do when you can feel Do you burn yourself to see if you're real I think back to what mama said you only die if you choose to be dead I think back to what mama told me when I was four years old I think back to what mama said when you're six feet under you shan't be dead I've got the key to life look in my eyes Live for love and you'll never die What do you do when you're alone Do you live for love or live for your own What do you do when you're alive Do you live for war, poverty, and strife
