Lyrics

[Verse 1]

I was born in a thunderstorm

I grew up overnight

I played alone, I played on my own

I survived

[Verse 2]

Hey

I wanted everything I never had

Like the love that comes with light

I wore envy and I hated it

But I survived

[PreChorus]

I had a one-way ticket to a place where all the demons go

Where the wind don't change, and nothin' in the ground can ever grow

No hope, just lies, and you're taught to cry in your pillow

But I survived

[Chorus]

I'm still breathing

I'm still breathing

I'm still breathing

I'm still breathing

[Chorus]

I'm alive

I'm alive

I'm alive

I'm alive

[Verse 3]

I found solace in the strangest place

Way in the back of my mind

I saw my life in a stranger's face

And it was mine

[PreChorus]

I had a one-way ticket to a place where all the demons go

Where the wind don't change, and nothin' in the ground can ever grow

No hope, just lies, and you're taught to cry in your pillow

But I survived

[Chorus]

I'm still breathing

I'm still breathing

I'm still breathing

I'm still breathing

[Chorus]

I'm alive

I'm alive

I'm alive

I'm alive

[Chorus]

You took it all, but I'm still breathing

You took it all, but I'm still breathing

You took it all, but I'm still breathing

You took it all, but I'm still breathing

You took it all, but I'm still breathing

You took it all, but I'm still breathing

You took it all, but I'm still breathing

You took it all, but I'm still breathing

[Bridge]

I have made every single mistake

That you could ever possibly make

I took, and I took, and I took what you gave

But you never noticed that I was in pain

I knew what I wanted, I went out and got it

Did all the things that you said that I wouldn't

I told you that I would never be forgotten

And all in spite of you

[Chorus]

And I'm still breathing, I'm still breathing

I'm still breathing, I'm still breathing

I'm alive (You took it all, but I'm still breathing, you took it all, but I'm still breathing)

I'm alive (You took it all, but I'm still breathing, you took it all, but I'm still breathing)

I'm alive (You took it all, but I'm still breathing, you took it all, but I'm still breathing)

I'm alive

[Outro]

I'm alive

I'm alive

I'm alive

I'm alive
