Sia - Alive Lyrics
[Verse 1]I was born in a thunderstormI grew up overnightI played alone, I played on my ownI survivedHeyI wanted everything I never hadLike the love that comes with lifeI wore envy and I hated itBut I survived[Pre-Chorus]I had a one-way ticket to a placeWhere all the demons goWhere the wind don't changeAnd nothing in the ground can ever growNo hope, just liesAnd you're taught to cry in your pillowBut I survived[Chorus]I'm still breathing, I'm still breathingI'm still breathing, I'm still breathingI'm aliveI'm aliveI'm aliveI'm alive[Verse 2]I found solace in the strangest placeWay in the back of my mindI saw my life in a stranger's faceAnd it was mine[Pre-Chorus]I had a one-way ticket to a placeWhere all the demons goWhere the wind don't changeAnd nothing in the ground can ever growNo hope, just liesAnd you're taught to cry in your pillowBut I survived[Chorus]I'm still breathing, I'm still breathingI'm still breathing, I'm still breathingI'm aliveI'm aliveI'm aliveI'm alive[Post-Chorus]You took it all, but I'm still breathingYou took it all, but I'm still breathingYou took it all, but I'm still breathingYou took it all, but I'm still breathingYou took it all, but I'm still breathingYou took it all, but I'm still breathingYou took it all, but I'm still breathingYou took it all, but I'm still breathing[Bridge]I had made every single mistakeThat you could ever possibly makeI took and I took and I took what you gaveBut you never noticed that I was in painI knew what I wanted; I went in and got itDid all the things that you said that I wouldn'tI told you that I would never be forgottenAnd all in spite of you[Chorus]And I'm still breathing, I'm still breathingI'm still breathing, I'm still breathingI'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 aliveI'm aliveI'm aliveI'm alive
