So We Can Stay Alive

Imagine this: we make things right So beautiful, we cling tonight To all our dreams, we pin them up We lose our minds if we lose our hope We swear to change, but we bottle it Stick to our guns and all our sins We bury fear, we drink to it We might cheat death if we worship it So we can stay alive Our sex, our power, our drive We lose ourselves inside So we can feel alive You're the one who should be on trial For all your hate and your denial Be careful what it is you break Every broken thing can't be fixed And all those fragile things we are They find their voice, they find their power They take a grip around your throat They keep squeezing till your life runs out So we can stay alive Our sex, our power, our drive We lose ourselves inside So we can feel alive (Masochistic victim sadist Victor vanquish valour sadness Lust and love, our lives, our blindness) All alone we fight the fear (we can feel alive) By ourselves in every way (we can feel alive) All our lust, all our greed All our hate, we're on our knees Hear us beg, hear us pray (we can feel) We can stay alive We can stay alive We can stay alive We can stay alive We can stay alive
