Alive (The Voice Performance)

I was born in a thunderstorm

I grew up overnight

Played alone, I'm playing on my own

But I'll survive

Had a one-way ticket to a place where all the demons go

Where the wind don't change

And nothing in the ground can ever grow

No hope, just lies

And you're taught to cry in your pillow

But I'll survive

I'm still breathing, I'm still breathing

I'm still breathing, I'm still breathing

I'm alive, I'm alive

I'm alive, I'm alive

I found solace in the strangest place

Way in the back of my mind

I saw my life in a stranger's face

And it was mine

I had a one-way ticket to a place where all the demons go

Where the wind don't change

And nothing in the ground can ever grow

No hope, just lies

And you're taught to cry in your pillow

But I'll survive

And I'm still breathing, I'm still breathing

I'm still breathing, I'm still breathing

I'm alive, I'm alive

I'm alive, I'm alive

I have made every single mistake

That you could every possibly make

I took and I took and I took what you gave

But you never noticed that I was in pain

Knew what I wanted, I went out and got it

Did all the things that you said that I wouldn't

Told you that I would never be forgotten

And all in spite of you, oh

Yo respiro

Yo respiro

Yo respiro

Yo respiro, yeah

(You took it all, but I'm still breathing)

(You took it all, but I'm still breathing)

(You took it all, but I'm still breathing)

(You took it all, but I'm still breathing)

I'm alive, yeah

(You took it all, but I'm still breathing)

(You took it all, but I'm still breathing)

(You took it all, but I'm still breathing)

I'm alive

I'm alive

I'm alive, yeah, yeah
