I'm Alive Lyrics

Next To Normal I'm Alive

GABE
I am what you want me to be and I'm your worst fear you'll find it in me
Come closer
Come closer

I am more than memory, I am what might be, I am mystery
You know me
So show me

When I appear it's not so clear if I'm a simple spirit or I'm flesh and blood

But I'm alive, I'm alive, I am so alive
And I feed on the fear that's behind your eyes
And I need you to need me it's no surprise
I'm alive
So alive
I'm alive

I am flame and I am fire, I am destruction, decay, and desire
I'll hurt you
I'll heal you

I'm your wish, your dream come true and I am your darkest nightmare too
I've shown you
I own you

And though you made me you can't change me
I'm a perfect stranger who knows you too well

I'm alive, I'm alive, I am so alive
And I'll tell you the truth if you let me try
You're alive, I'm alive, and I'll show you why
I'm alive
So alive
I'm alive

I'm right behind you
You say, "Forget," but I'll remind you
You can try to hide, you know that I will find you
'Cause if you won't grieve me, you won't leave me behind

Oh, oh, whoa, whoa...
No, no, no!

I'm alive, I'm alive, I am so alive
If you climb on my back, then we both can fly
If you try to deny me I'll never die
I'm alive
So alive
I'm alive
Yeah, yeah
I'm alive
I'm alive
I'm alive
I'm alive
