Inside me there's a shadow
A darker part I see
Sometimes it won't stop growing
It won't take no from me
I want to feel alive!
My life keeps growing heavy
My burden does the same
My tired mind, it tells me
That unrest calls my name
I want to feel alive!
I want to feel alive!
I wish more than anything
For fire in my heart
But anguish is a nuisance
Why won't it just depart?
I want to feel alive!
I want to feel alive!
But there are days of comfort
The shadow's almost died
It simply lies within me
Invisible - and tired
That's when I feel alive!
That's when I feel alive!
That's when I feel alive!
