Alive lyrics

[Verse 1]

Take me back to the moment

Take me back to the start

Take me back to the days we lost our time

We were drivin' and drinkin'

Takin' pills in a Lincoln

Missed it if you were blinkin' on the night

[Pre-Chorus]

Don't believe a word they say

You never listened anyway

No way

[Chorus]

You won't take me alive

You won't take me alive

You won't take me alive 'cause I've got so much more to live for

You won't take me alive

You won't take me alive

You won't take me alive 'cause I've got so much more to live for

[Verse 2]

You were open and broken

All the pain you were holdin'

Like a light when it flickers all night long

You go on like the ocean

Forever and golden

Now I'm nothing but empty and now you're gone

[Pre-Chorus]

Don't believe a word they say

You never listened anyway

No way

[Chorus]

You won't take me alive

You won't take me alive

You won't take me alive 'cause I've got so much more to live for

You won't take me alive

You won't take me alive

You won't take me alive 'cause I've got so much more to live for

[Post-Chorus]

All the lonely days and wasted nights

Or the best of times and the worst of fights

I live for, oh I live for

[Bridge]

I don't wanna let go

But I gotta let go

Now it's time for you to go home

I don't wanna let go (I don't wanna let go)

But I gotta let go (I gotta let go)

Now it's time for you to go home

[Chorus]

You won't take me alive

You won't take me alive

You won't take me alive 'cause I've got so much more to live for (To live, to live, to live for)

You won't take me alive

You won't take me alive

You won't take me alive 'cause I've got so much more to live for (To live, to live, to live for)

[Post-Chorus]

All the lonely days and wasted nights

Or the best of times and the worst of fights

I live for, oh I live for

All the lonely days and wasted nights

Or the best of times and the worst of fights

I live for (I live for), oh I live for (I live for)

[Outro]

I don't wanna let go

But I gotta let go

Now it's time for you to go home
