Alive - Bayless

I’m down here in this cavern, a dark and lonely place

I’m shouting here on bended knee with the echoes screaming in my face

Can you hear me?

Lord, can you hear me?

Hello?

It’s so cold in here I can see my fear

Abducted by my enemy anger, a victim of my own war, I don’t love you anymore

In the darkness we all look the same

I’m so alone but hear someone calling my name

I was dying till I heard your name

Lying in a pool of my shame

Poisoned through my veins

You broke through my night, blinded me with your light

My lungs just want to scream it

For the first time, I’m alive

I’m hiding from this fear that dances, I’ve ruined all my second chances

Oh there’s so much more to me

And a hero will come rescue me, I can hear the bell toll for me

A prisoner enduring the lashes, but I hold the key, as if ashes

Oh I did this on my own

So I’ll forgive and I’ll be reborn

And I’ll live for, I want to live for something more

I was dying till I heard your name

Lying in a pool of my shame

Poisoned through my veins

You broke through my night, blinded me with your light

My lungs just want to scream it

For the first time, I’m alive

You broke through my night

Scales fell from my eyes

I’m not who I was, no longer calloused

We are the change, we are the light

Love will save us all, don’t give up the fight

I was dying till I heard your name

Lying in a pool of my shame

Poisoned through my veins

You broke through my night, blinded me with your light

My lungs just want to scream it

For the first time, I’m alive
