Alive

I was born in a thunderstormI grew up overnightI played aloneI'm playing on my ownI survivedHeyI wanted everything I never hadLike the love that comes with lightI wore envy and I hated thatBut I survivedI had a one-way ticket to a place where all the demons goWhere the wind don't changeAnd nothing in the ground can ever growNo hope, just liesAnd you're taught to cry in your pillowBut I'll surviveI'm still breathingI'm still breathingI'm still breathingI'm still breathingI'm aliveI'm aliveI'm aliveI'm aliveI found solace in the strangest placeWay in the back of my mindI saw my life in a stranger's faceAnd it was mineI had a one-way ticket to a place where all the demons goWhere the wind don't changeAnd nothing in the ground can ever growNo hope, just liesAnd you're taught to cry in your pillowBut I survivedI'm still breathingI'm still breathingI'm still breathingI'm still breathingI'm aliveI'm aliveI'm aliveI'm aliveYou took it all, but I'm still breathingYou took it all, but I'm still breathingYou took it all, but I'm still breathingYou took it all, but I'm still breathingYou took it all, but I'm still breathingYou took it all, but I'm still breathingYou took it all, but I'm still breathingYou took it all, but I'm still breathingI had made every single mistakeThat you could ever possibly makeI took and I took and I took what you gaveBut you never noticed that I was in painI knew what I wanted; I went in and got itDid all the things that you said that I wouldn'tI told you that I would never be forgottenAnd all in spite of youAnd I'm still breathingI'm still breathingI'm still breathingI'm still breathingI'm alive (you took it out, but I'm still breathing)(You took it out, but I'm still breathing)I'm alive you took it out, but I'm still breathing)(You took it out, but I'm still breathing)I'm alive (you took it out, but I'm still breathing)(You took it out, but I'm still breathing)I'm aliveI'm aliveI'm aliveI'm aliveI'm alive
