Babe, I'm happy now, and much more grateful
Not to mention less contentious, vengeful and hateful
Guess I'm what you'd call childlike and playful
Just swimming with the tide
I lost my stiff, stiff neck and my hard, hard heart
My self-respect is off the charts
Just hanging out here on the other side
Dead to my pride now that I've died
♪
I can't hurt you now or harm anyone
I'm too busy helping people and having fun
I'm not a loner anymore since I joined the tribe
On the other side
And I love my neighbour as I love myself
I'm loved by God, I've got my health
I'm going strong and becoming wise
I couldn't lie if I tried now that I've died
♪
My new skin glows, I can't help but smile
'Cause the music round here is just my style
Every door's been unlocked and I'm going inside
All bushy-tailed and wide-eyed
(I sell records worldwide now that I've died)
Up here I don't hold back, I never flinch
I go the extra mile when asked for an inch
And the rich serve the poor and the poor are the rich
It's kind of hard to describe
I'm never cynical, but still a little sarcastic
By the way, the cuisine here is pretty fantastic
And I never have to ask, "what's the truth? What's a lie?"
It's pretty cut-and-dried now that I've died
(Now that he's died)
♪
Like I said, babe, I so much more grateful
Imagine me all honourable and faithful
But things have changed, I'm not so unstable
Completely satisfied
And the future's getting brighter now I'm past the hard part
Of going through that dark door into the darkest dark
Let me say, baby, all this missing you aside
I've never been more alive now that I've died
(Never been more alive)
(Never been more alive)
Now that I've died
(Never been more alive)
(Died)
Well, I've never been more alive
Never been more alive
I've never been more alive
Now that I've died, died, died, died
I've never been more alive
No, I've never been more alive
I've never been more alive
Now that I've died, died, died, died
I've never been more alive
I've never been more alive
I've never been more alive
Now that I've died, died, died, died, died, died
I've never been more alive
(Never been more alive)
I've never been more alive
(Never been more alive)
I've never been more alive
Now that I've died
