|
I shiver when |
|
I remember |
|
The things that |
|
I have seen |
|
I know the light, |
|
I know the |
|
Night I have walked with things unseen |
|
I have been a king invincible |
|
I've been the poorest of the poor |
|
I've pulled the mighty from their thrones |
|
And laughed at |
|
Death's own door ' |
|
Cause I'm alive, |
|
I'm alive |
|
I'm alive, |
|
I'm alive |
|
I roamed the world in search of life |
|
Death followed in my wake |
|
I searched for truth, |
|
I want the truth |
|
And learned more than |
|
I could take |
|
I've walked the roads of mystery |
|
And it's aged me much too soon |
|
I've paied the piper and |
|
I've paied him well |
|
But he still calls the tune |
| [4x] |
I'm alive <i> |
|
I shiver when |
|
I remember |
|
The shadow of the past |
|
The lonely ways, the lonely days |
|
When every breath might be my last |
|
I lost my heart, |
|
I lost my soul |
|
By every hand betrayed |
|
But I've still got strength, |
|
I've still got life |
|
And that will never change ' |
|
Cause I'm alive, |
|
I'm alive |
|
I'm alive, |
|
I'm alive |
| [5x] |
I'm alive <i> |
