These days, lately, I've been chasing shadows in the dark

I've forgotten the light

No, nothing's black and white

Living in the grace

Falling through the hourglass of time, time, time

I've been turning the tide, tide, tonight.

Come a little closer, closer to the flame

Holding in the fire, tearing up the frame

And I'm still alive (hey, hey, I'm still alive)

Come a little closer, closer to the pain

Ashes and desire, burning in my veins

And I'm still alive (hey, hey, I'm still alive)

Wasted, weightless, suspended like a puppet on a string

But I'll never give in

I've been on my own, I've been feeling low

The bruises left will never ever show, no, no...

And I'm letting it go, go, woah...

Come a little closer, closer to the flame

Holding in the fire, tearing up the frame

And I'm still alive (hey, hey, I'm still alive)

Come a little closer, closer to the pain

Ashes and desire, burning in my veins

And I'm still alive (hey, hey, I'm still alive)

And I feel alive (hey, hey, I'm still alive)

I don't wanna let this go,

Pulled myself from the undertow

And I push you out, did I let you in?

Started over and over again

I said I don't wanna let this go,

Pulled myself from the undertow

And I push you out, did I let you in?

Start it over and over again.

Come a little closer

Closer to the flame

Holding in the fire

Tearing up the frame

And I'm still alive.

Come a little closer, closer to the flame

Holding in the fire, tearing up the frame

And I'm still alive (hey, hey, I'm still alive)

Come a little closer, closer to the pain

Ashes and desire, burning in my veins

And I'm still alive (hey, hey, I'm still alive)

And I feel alive (hey, hey, I'm still alive)
