Well, I've been thinkin' and thinkin' till I just don't know

What to think anymore

And I've been trying to figure it all out

Poundin' my fist on the floor

But, I'm not givin' in

To this fear, this pain

These tears in my eyes

Means there's blood in my veins

I'm alive

I wanna taste every tear that falls

I wanna face every fear that calls my name

I'm gonna stand and say

I'm alive

I wanna take every breath God gives

Like it's the precious gift that it is

I want to live

With every heartbeat reminding me

I'm alive

Well, I've been holding my breath

With this ache in my chest

For a miracle to come

That takes away all this pain

Lifts me up and away

Let's me see it all from above

But I know that days comin'

When these tears are all gone

But my brave little heart

Will keep beating strong

I'm alive

I wanna taste every tear that falls

I wanna face every fear that calls my name

I'm gonna stand and say

I'm alive

I wanna take every breath God gives

Like it's the precious gift that it is

I want to live

With every heartbeat reminding me

I'm alive

I'm alive

We all come screamin' into this world

Wonderin' if we're going to survive

Then we discover the laughter

But it's not too long after

The bright days turn to night

And we carry this longing for it all too be well

Till it is, let's remember

We've got a story to tell

We're alive

So, let's taste every tear that falls

Stand and face every fear that calls our name

Singin' our song and say

We're alive

We gotta take every breath God gives

Like it's the precious gift that it is

C'mon, let's live

With every heartbeat reminding us

We are alive

Yeah, we are alive
