I believe I did everything I could

I believe I did everything by the book

I believe I did lose the fight, lose the fight

Cos it wasn't enough to give you everything

Was not enough to let you deeply in

I ran through dark city streets to hold you through the night

But where'd you end up now

Do we even live in the same town?

Do you ever think about that time

We snuck into the cemetery at night?

Oh, where'd you end up, tell

Do you have a hole in your heart as well?

And do you ever think about that time

We snuck into the cemetery at night?

Get out, get out, get out of my mind

Get out, get out, get out of my mind

I want to forget that night

Cos laying upon the dead with you

Laying upon the dead with you, my love

I've never felt so alive

I've never felt so alive

I've never felt so alive

I believe I gave everything I had

I believe I lost what you never gave back

I believe I did lose my mind, lose my mind

Cos it wasn't enough to let you call the shots

Was not enough just letting you be lost

I fell through hell every time you disappeared, cos I loved you still

But where'd you end up now

Do we even live in the same town?

Do you ever think about that time

We snuck into the cemetery at night?

Oh, where'd you end up, tell

Do you have a hole in your heart as well?

And do you ever think about that time

We snuck into the cemetery at night?

Get out, get out, get out of my mind

Get out, get out, get out of my mind

I want to forget that night

Cos laying upon the dead with you

Laying upon the dead with you, my love

I've never felt so alive

I've never felt so alive

I've never felt so alive

I've never felt so alive

I've never felt so alive

Now all the scars have finally faded, I realise

Since then I've never felt so alive
