"Burning Alive" lyrics

"Burning Alive"

I've been defeated
I begged for what I needed
I suffered, now I'm ready for war

Been through the struggle
Black eyes and bloody knuckles
But I don't feel the pain anymore

If blood don't tell you the truth
Then could you please cut me loose
'Cause I've been wanting to die

If burning makes me a liar
Then come join me in the fire
I know you wouldn't survive
But I'll be burning alive

Alive, alive
I'll be burning alive
Alive, alive
I'll be burning alive

I met my demons
And asked them for their reasons
I wrote their names in blood on the wall

They speak in riddles
And meet me in the middle
They're quiet while they wait for the fall (oh)
If scars are makeup and paint
Then thanks for setting me straight
'Cause I've been living a lie

If burning makes me a liar
Then come join me in the fire
I know you wouldn't survive
But I'll be burning alive

Alive, alive
I'll be burning alive
Alive, alive
I'll be burning alive

I have a story
I won't be sorry it's told
Is it real or fantasy
Outrun the monsters after me
You'll be praying for a savior to arrive
I'll be patient in the flames
While I'm burning alive

Alive, alive
I'll be burning alive
Alive, alive
I'll be burning alive

I'll be burning alive...
