Still Alive

[Verse 1 - dark, slow] This is the end of the world, This is the end of words, This is the end of ways... [Break] This is the end of the fight, This is the end of life, This is the end of days... [Pre-Chorus - tense, building] I see it in my dreams — The world in agony, All around is dying... [Break] But every time your kiss Wakes me from my sleep, I feel — I'm still alive! [Chorus - powerful, anthemic] And then I feel — I'm still alive! [Instrumental - ambient, ethereal] [Verse 2 - hopeful, lighter] Out of the ash and dust, Hope rises in us, Breaking through silent stones... The sky begins to breathe, The winds return in peace, And flowers bloom through bones... [Pre-Chorus 2 - intimate, then soaring] I see it in your eyes — The stars I thought had died Now burn in your silence... And every time you kiss, The world awakens in me, I feel — I'm still alive! [Chorus 2 - triumphant] And then I feel — I'm still alive! And now it's gonna be alright, As long as you're here by my side! [Scream] I'M STILL ALIVE! [Break, instrumental] [Bridge - whisper to scream] If I could choose to never sleep — To keep this world from falling deep — I don’t know what I would decide... 'Cause if I never dream again, I'll lose the one place without pain — The way your lips revive my life! [Final Chorus - epic, then fade] And now I feel — I'm still alive! Yes, it's gonna be alright, As long as you're here by my side... [Scream] I'M STILL ALIVE! As long as I can feel your lips — The world will never shatter to bits. [Scream] I'M STILL ALIVE! No fear, no dark, no endless night — Just hold me close, and we'll remain... [Scream] STILL ALIVE! [Break, instrumental] [Outro - echoing] STILL ALIVE!
