Shiver and put your hand in the river Set the bottle afloat Send the future a note Tell yourself to be bold Tell yourself to be bold 'Cause it's gonna get dark And you're gonna lose sight But the future is bright For those who don't lose heart So we might as well start 'cause we're falling apart Yeah we're falling apart I'm a rose in a jar I'm a rose in a jar I want to be alive While I am alive While I am alive Oh I want to feel the light color in my eyes So I can see clearly that this is all really a fight A fight for my life River like a rippling mirror Is the child inside or did he run for his life Did he run for his life When times were tough when the light was lost? These nights are long but I'm holding on I want to be alive While I am alive While I am alive Oh I want to feel the light color in my eyes So I can see clearly that this is all really a fight A fight to survive It's clearly a fight A fight for my life So fight for your life Fight till the death Fight to survive Fight for the rest of your life on this planet No need to panic Fight for the moment Take it slow Take it slow Take it slow Take it slow Slow, slow, slow Take it slow Take it slow Take it slow Take it slow
