lyrics

Barely breathing the world is
hardly hanging on
More than ever
your world seems so strong

Tie the strings 'round my heart
then turn out the light
We will sleep
we will wake before it's right

Like neither can live
while the other survives
Just can't get a grip on it
'cause your heart is mine

My hands touched those keys
my tongue, that wine
My lips touched the feast
My eyes saw the light
My feet keep trying to move me alive
'cause if my body can survive,
so will I

The world that rejects you
the world that accepts you
the living, the dying
collide in our bodies
My body's alive in your world and mine
My body's alive in your world and mine

My body's alive.

My hands touched those keys
my tongue, that wine
My lips touched the feast
My eyes saw the light
My feet keep trying to move me alive
'cause if my body can survive,
if my body can survive,
if my body can survive,
so will I

My body's alive.
