"Alive" lyrics

I'm feeling sick of this illusion and my faith is thin
It's like my past is just waiting out of sight
Feel if I could walk away and somehow slip this skin
And find myself a better world to stand and fight

I don't need it now, all the things you avow, all the things you allow
Just gotta become and stand alone somewhere somehow
How

'Cause I'm just trying to find myself again
I want so much more than just survive
And if I have to fight alone, I can
'Cause I'm just trying to feel alive, alive, alive
Alive, alive
How

And as if you still believe the future's yours to bend
Maybe we can find ourselves the other side

'Cause I'm just trying to find myself again
I want so much more than just survive
And if I have to fight alone, I can
'Cause I'm just trying to feel alive, alive, alive
Alive, alive
How
