"Hallelujah (I'm Not Dead)" lyrics

Flat line, a breath away
I was born with one foot in the grave
Been to hell and back
Dealt a real bad hand, but I'll live with that

I've learned to face my darkness
Now I embrace my doubt
Don't go and plan my funeral
Don't go and count me out
Don't go and count me out

Living on a razor's edge
Danced with demons, tasted death
I've lost wars inside my head
But hallelujah, I'm not dead
Won't be waiting on my hearse
Pain's a gift, it ain't a curse
My heart still beats, my blood's still red
Hallelujah, I'm not dead
Hallelujah, I'm not dead

Hallelujah
Hallelujah

Wake up another fight
Am I the victim or the homicide
What's in my head left scars behind
Every step is an uphill climb

I've learned to live in shadows
Even without the light
I've learned to love the battles
Only the strong survive
Only the strong survive

Living on a razor's edge
Danced with demons, tasted death
I've lost wars inside my head
But hallelujah, I'm not dead
Won't be waiting on my hearse
Pain's a gift, it ain't a curse
My heart still beats, my blood's still red
Hallelujah, I'm not dead
Hallelujah, I'm not dead

So if you're black and blue
And feeling so abused
No it don't make you damaged
It makes you living proof
That you are so much more
Than all this hell you've known
Remember this:
What doesn't kill you is what builds your throne

Living on a razor's edge
Danced with demons, tasted death
I've lost wars inside my head
But hallelujah, I'm not dead
Won't be waiting on my hearse
Pain's a gift, it ain't a curse
My heart still beats, my blood's still red
Hallelujah, I'm not dead

Living on a razor's edge
Danced with demons, tasted death
I've lost wars inside my head
But hallelujah, I'm not dead
Won't be waiting on my hearse
Pain's a gift, it ain't a curse
My heart still beats, my blood's still red
Hallelujah, I'm not dead
Hallelujah, I'm not dead
