Olivia Newton-John - (Livin' In) Desperate Times Lyrics
Never thought it would be so roughAnd I wonder if I have enoughTo keep from breaking downNo Mercy in this townEvery day is just another testSeems I'm always second bestBut you learn along the wayThat's the price you have to payI try to stay defiant, be tough and self reliantThough I get tired to the boneLove is just a wish you keep insideHow's it gonna help me to surviveLooks like I'm in this fight aloneCHORUSAnd I'm living in desperate timesBeing alive's my only crimeDon't care what I have to doI'll find some way to make it throughOh, and I'm living in desperate timesAnd it's too late to change my mindTill these desperate times are doneGonna run, watch me runInnocents get taken inBy the promise of an easy winThey start off so naiveSo eager to believeBut the glitter of the city lightsOnly covers up a lonely nightOf strangers slamming doorsYou're hungry and ignoredI've faced the competitionI've made the hard decisionsWill it be worth it in the end?Taking any chance that comes alongGetting hard to tell what's right or wrongI only wish I had a friendAnd I'm livin' in desperate timesBeing alive's my only crimeDon't care what I have to doI'll find some way to make it throughOh, and I'm livin' in desperate timesAnd it's too late to change my mindTill these desperate times are done, gonna runWatch me runAnd I'm livin' in desperate timesBeing alive's my only crimeDon't care what I have to doI'll find some way to make it through -acapo
