I rode away in the sunrise A great escape from a white lie Thought death was a surprise I looked around and I, I was alive ♪ Sweat running down in fine lines A vision flashing by a lifetime Some decoy in the firing line I looked around and I, I was alive ♪ I know a fire by the smoke rise The tremble in your voice on the other line Pass me over in the blue night I looked around and I, I was alive I was alive ♪ I saw a dream rising in your eyes To carry with you down to the other side Took a picture in the fading light I looked around and I, I was alive ♪ A pixel glowing in a child's eyes See them laughing, I say goodbye I miss you like the starry sky I looked around and I, I was alive
