"Dying To Stay Alive" lyrics

"Dying To Stay Alive"

Put down your weapon
Kick it over to me please
I know this isn't easy
I know it isn't fair
To wanna go but have to freeze

You feel the loneliness of night
The cruel flashes of light
Despondent, cold and sleep deprived
Mind in overdrive
Dying to stay alive

The bend of the pillow
The rattle of the windows
Familiar as ABC's
Shouting in the distance
Filters through the spaces
Just enough to offer a tease

Could this be real, could it be true
There must be something we can do
And now the panic has arrived
How will we survive
Dying to stay alive

You feel the darkness of the night
The fire of agony ignite
Your self-control takes a dive
Mind in overdrive
Dying to stay alive
Dying to stay alive
Dying to stay alive
Dying to stay alive
