I have changed, I have changed Just like you, just like you For how long, for how long must I wait? I know there's something wrong Your concrete heart isn't beating And I've tried to make it come alive No shadows, just red lights Now I'm here to rescue you Ooh I'm still alive, I'm still alive I cannot apologize, no Ooh I'm still alive, I'm still alive I cannot apologize, no So silent, no violence But inside my head so loud and clear You're screaming, you're screaming Covered up with a smile I've learned to fear Just sunshine and blue sky Is this is all we get for living here? Come fire, come fire Let it burn and love come racing through Ooh I'm still alive, I'm still alive I cannot apologize, no I'm still alive, I'm still alive I cannot apologize, no I've learned to lose, I've learned to win I turn my face against the wind I will move fast, I will move slow Take me where I have to go Ooh I'm still alive, I'm still alive I cannot apologize, no I'm still alive Ooh I'm still alive, I'm still alive I cannot apologize, no I'm still alive, I'm still alive I cannot apologize, no Ooh I'm still alive, I'm still alive I cannot apologize, no
