I Was Alive Lyrics

I remember how it used to feel

All the anxiety and fear

Running from stores when I would steal

Blood pumping beats into my ear

Driving me on

Into the next catastrophe

Don't hold back

Assault, breaking and entering

Can't stop, now I've tried

Nothing else seems worth while

Now those same things

Won't bring the fire

That's what made me feel I was alive

Living dead out of energy

Excitement slowly leaving me

In desperate need of a remedy

To bring love back and set me free

Danger awaits

Time to engage in villainy

Hold on tight

Paint the town red until it bleeds

Can't stop, now I've tried

Nothing else seems worth while

Now those same things

Won't bring the fire

That's what made me feel I was alive

Chasing the rush will not

Bring back the fireworks

Can't stop, now I've tried

Nothing else seems worth while

Now those same things

Won't bring the fire

(Slowly I begin to surface)

That's what made me feel I was alive

(Finding out that love's imperfect)

(Slowly I begin to surface)

That's what made me reach out for your hand tonight

(Finding out that love's imperfect)

That's what makes me feel like I'm alive
