In a grave of roses

While the night is closing in

My soul is so cold

But I want to live again

I know You'll come to me

I wait in misery

I want to fight for this

Save me from this darkness!

I reach for the light

I want to live, my life

The choice is mine

I've made up my mind

Now, I'm free to start again

The way I want to live (to live)

And breathe (and breathe)

The way I want that's right for me

I may not know nothing else

But I know this

I want to live

All I ever needed

Was a reason to believe

You helped me hold on

You ignite the fire in me

You always come for me

You know just what I need

Don't make me wait for this

Save me from this darkness!

I reach for the light

I want to live, my life

The choice is mine

I've made up my mind

Now, I'm free to start again

The way I want to live (to live)

And breathe (and breathe)

The way I want that's right for me

I may not know nothing else

But I know this

I want to live

I'm breathing, still breathing

But I can't fight this fear alone

This feeling, is killing slow

But now I know

I want to live, my life

The choice is mine

I've made up my mind

Now, I'm free to start again

The way I want to live (to live)

And breathe (and breathe)

The way I want that's right for me

I may not know nothing else

But I know this

I want to live

I want to live

I know this

I want to live!
