Alive
FACING A NEW LIFE
A NEW START
A NEW HOPE
THAT I ALONE CAN COPE
I NEED NO OTHER
TO SMOTHER
PLAY, LIE AND USE
TO PALINLY REFUSE
BORN IN DARKNESS
LOST IN THE STARKNESS
OF NEAR INSANITY
I NEED ME, ONLY ME
THE ONE MY MOTHER REAISED
THE ONE DAD NEVER PRAISED
DIGGING DOWN DEEP
MY SOUL TO KEEP
ALIVE AND WELL
ONLY TIME WILL TELL
MY WILL LIVES ON
MY DREAMS NOT GONE
MY GOD I AM ALIVE
AND DESPITE ALL
I WILL SURVIVE
