My blood is red, I'm perfectly flawed I'm not immortal, my time is brief So I want more than I can have I'm alive, alive With every breath of life I draw My words will more than rhyme As long as I know I'm alive My views are strong I know I'm right, I loved yet hated And though I'm one and they are many They're out numbered I'm alive, alive With every breath of life I draw My words will more than rhyme As long as I know I'm alive My blood is red, my time is brief I value now and believe that life is calling And she's screaming my name I'm alive (yes, I'm one of the living) Alive (because I know I'm alive) With every breath of song I've sung My words will more than rhyme As long as I know I'm alive
