In a rundown city apartment
I'm laying on the bedroom floor
I hear the girl next door
Crying up against the wall

And I can tell by the weight of the silence
That she ain't gonna take no more
I hear the man next door
Saying it will be alright

Saying I don't wanna lose you tonight
I don't wanna fall when I'm this high
I don't really want to be free
I'm living the life, it's all I need

And you can take away the lonely nights
Cause all I ever needed is my vice
I don't really want to be free
I'm living the life

There's a knock on the balcony window
A silhouette on the fire escape
It's the girl next door
Looking for a place to stay

I open up and I say are you alright
She says I didn't know where else to go
I've seen you in my dreams
You're everywhere I used to go

You're everywhere

And I don't wanna lose you tonight
I don't wanna fall when I'm this high
I don't really want to be free
I'm living the life, it's all I need

And you can take away the lonely nights
Cause all I ever needed is my vice
I don't really want to be free
I'm living the life

There's nothing I need when I got you on my mind
And everything's just fine
When we are intertwined together
One forever, we'll be living the life

I don't wanna lose you tonight
I don't wanna fall when I'm this high
I don't really want to be free
I'm living the life, it's all I need

And you can take away the lonely nights
Cause all I ever needed is my vice
I don't really want to be free
I'm living the life, it's all I need

And I don't wanna lose you tonight
I don't wanna fall when I'm this high
I don't really want to be free
I'm living the life
