Stay Alive Lyrics


Oh, your fingers were crossed behind your back
Before you ever gave me a chance
But now I have learned to trust myself
And I don't need anyone else
No one's here to light the candle
No one's here to light the way
It's something I will have to handle
My way
I've got to open up my eyes
And find a way to kill the boredom
I watch the time go by
Now it's time for me to get mine
Out of room, out of places to hide
Backed up in the corner I know I will stay alive
Out of room, out of places to hide
Backed up in the corner I know I will stay alive
The lights are still on
And I am still here there's nothing left to fear

A vision I've seen, a fire will burn
No longer will I wait my turn
No one's here to light the candle
No one's here to light the way
It's something I will have to handle
My way
I've got to open up my eyes
And find a way to kill the boredom
I watch the time go by
And now it's time for me to get mine
Out of room, out of places to hide
Backed up in the corner I know I will stay alive
Out of room, out of places to hide
Backed up in the corner I know I will stay alive
Stay alive
Stay alive
This time, this time
It's time for me to get mine
Out of room, out of places to hide
Backed up in the corner I know I will stay alive
Out of room, out of places to hide
Backed up in the corner I know I will stay alive
I will stay alive, I will stay alive
I will stay alive, I will stay alive
