Lyrics
Never thought it would be so rough
And I wonder if I have enough to keep from breaking down
No mercy in this town
Every day is just another test
Seems I'm always second-best, but you learn along the way
It's the price you have to pay
Try to stay defiant, be tough and self-reliant
Oh, I get tired to the bone
Love is just a wish you keep inside
How's it gonna help me to survive?
Looks like I'm in this fight alone
And I'm living in desperate times
Being alive's my only crime
Don't care what I have to do
I'll find some way to make it through
Oh, and I'm living in desperate times
And it's too late to change my mind
Till these desperate times are done
Gonna run, watch me run
Innocents get taken in by the promise of an easy win
They start out so naïve, so eager to believe
But the glitter of the city lights only covers
Up a lonely night of strange slamming doors
You're hungry and ignored
I've faced the competition
I've made the hard decisions
Will it be worth it in the end?
Taking any chance that comes along
Getting hard to tell what's right or wrong
I only wish I had a friend
And I'm living in desperate times
Being alive's my only crime
Don't care what I have to do
I'll find some way to make it through
Oh, and I'm living in desperate times
And it's too late to change my mind
Till these desperate times are done
Gonna run, watch me run
La, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la
La, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la
And I'm living in desperate times
Being alive's my only crime
Don't care what I have to do
I'll find some way to make it through
And I'm living in desperate times
Being alive's my only crime
Don't care what I have to do
I'll find some way to make it through
Oh, and I'm living in desperate times
And it's too late to change my mind
Till these desperate times are done
Gonna run, watch me run
