We Are Finally Alive

Breathe In Deep
To Taste The Tainted
Hold Your Breath
You'll Be Glad You Waited
Become The Moment
And Reach Inside
We're Finally Alive 
So Enjoy The Ride

Hearts Are Faint
To The Subtle Sensation
Waiting To Exhale
Moments Before Creation
The Smoke In Circles
Fades With Time
It's Our Turn Now
Together We'll Climb

One More Breath
And One Last Thought
If This Were My Last
Would We Get Caught?
Hold My Hand Once More
Watching The Smoke Fade
We're Finally Alive 
And Our Memory Is Made
