Good to Be Alive Songtext

von Skillet

When all you've got are broken dreams
Just need a second chance
And everything you want to be
Gets taken from your hands

We hold on to each other
All we have is all we need
'Cause one way or another
We always make it, you and me

This life can almost kill you
When you're trying to survive
It's good to be here with ya

And it's good to be alive
It's good to be alive

I was lost and I was gone
I was almost dead inside
You and me against the world
It's a beautiful night

It's good to be alive
(It's good to be alive, it's good to be alive)
It's good to be alive
(It's good to be alive, it's good to be alive)

Driving down this highway
Soaking up the sun
Got miles to go before we get home
And the journey's just begun

We hold on to each other
You are everything I need
You feel like forever
You're a second chance for me

This life can almost kill ya
When you're trying to survive
It's good to be here with ya

And it's good to be alive
It's good to be alive

I was lost and I was gone
I was almost dead inside
You and me against the world
It's a beautiful night

It's good to be alive

It's a beautiful night
Yeah, it's alright

It's good to be alive

This life can almost kill ya
When you're trying to survive
It's good to be alive
(It's good to be alive, it's good to be alive)
It's good to be alive
(It's good to be alive, it's good to be alive)
And it's good to be alive
It's good to be alive

I was lost and I was gone
I was almost dead inside
You and me against the world
It's a beautiful night

It's good to be alive

It's a beautiful night
Yeah, it's alright

It's good to be alive

Despair
You come to me
With your poison and your misery

Oh, death
You come to sting
With your poison and your misery

Death, death, death, death
Death surrounds me
Singing to me softly
Death, its shadows
Spreads its wings around me
In the night, close your eyes
Or it will come
This is how it feels when you're bent and broken
This is how it feels when your dignity is stolen
In the night, close your eyes, or it will come
Creeping in the shadows
Creeping in my mind
Death, death
Don't close your eyes
