I'm Alive - Disturbed

Never again will I be dishonored

And never again will I be reminded

Of living within the world of the jaded

They kill inspiration;

it’s my obligation

To never again allow this to happen

Where do I begin?

The choices are endless

Denying the sin

My art, my redemption

I carry the torch of my fathers before me

The thing I treasure the most in life

Cannot be taken away

There will never be a reason why

I will surrender to your advice

To change myself, I’d rather die

Though they will not understand

I won’t make the greatest sacrifice

You can’t predict where the outcome lies

You’ll never take me alive

I’m alive

I’m alive

I’m alive

Change again cannot be considered

I rage again, dispelling my anger

Where do I begin?

The choices are endless

My art, my redemption

My only salvation

I carry the gift that I have been blessed with

My soul is adrift in oceans of madness

Repairing the rift that you have created

I am not alone;

brothers, give me your arms now

The thing I treasure most in life

Cannot be taken away

There will never be a reason why

I will surrender to your advice

To change myself, I’d rather die

Though they will not understand

I won’t make the greatest sacrifice

You can’t predict where the outcome lies

You’ll never take me alive

I’m no slave;

are you feeling brave?

Or have you gone out of your mind?

No more games, it won’t feel the same

If I hold my anger inside

There’s no meaning;

my soul is bleeding

I’ve had enough of your kind

One suggestion: Use your discretion

Before you label me blind

The thing I treasure most in life

Cannot be taken away

There will never be a reason why

I will surrender to your advice

To change myself, I’d rather die

Though they will not understand

I won’t make the greatest sacrifice

You can’t predict where the outcome lies

You’ll never take me alive

I’m alive

I’m alive

I’m alive

I’m alive

I’m alive

I’m alive

I’m alive

I’m alive
