Burning Alive

I've been defeated I begged for what I needed I suffered, now I'm ready for war Been through the struggle Black eyes and bloody knuckles But I don't feel the pain anymore If blood don't tell you the truth Then could you please cut me loose 'Cause I've been wanting to die If burning makes me a liar Then come join me in the fire I know you wouldn't survive But I'll be burning alive Alive, alive I'll be burning alive Alive, alive I'll be burning alive I met my demons And asked them for their reasons I wrote their names in blood on the wall They speak in riddles And meet me in the middle They're quiet while they wait for the fall If scars are makeup and paint Then thanks for setting me straight 'Cause I've been living a lie If burning makes me a liar Then come join me in the fire I know you wouldn't survive But I'll be burning alive Alive, alive I'll be burning alive Alive, alive I'll be burning alive I have a story I won't be sorry it's told Is it real or fantasy Outrun the monsters after me You'd be praying for a savior to arrive I'll be patient in the flames While I'm burning alive Alive, alive I'll be burning alive Alive, alive I'll be burning alive I'll be burning alive
