Lyrics
Woke up under water, throat chained with the collar
Couldn't get any further from the daylight
Was I still dreaming? Stuck to a machine
Or choking and screaming with my hands tied?
I'm calling and calling, but nobody comes
Falling and falling, no air in my lungs
Getting so comfortably numb
Don't know how I open up my eyes
But I'm still alive
I don't wanna just survive
Give me something to sink all my teeth in
Eat the devil and spit out my demons
Still alive
I already died a thousand times
Went to Hell, but I'm back and I'm breathing
Make me bleed while my heart's still beating
Still alive
Sucked out the poison, drowned out the noisе
'Cause I made a choice and drеw a heartline
Let the fire catch until I'm back to ash
If anybody asks, I'm turning back time
I'm chasing the ghosts that would me haunt at night
Facing my past 'cause I'm up for the fight
Somebody turned on the light
I'm not afraid to open up my eyes
But I'm still alive
I don't wanna just survive
Give me something to sink all my teeth in
Eat the devil and spit out my demons
Still alive
I already died a thousand times
Went to Hell, but I'm back and I'm breathing
Make me bleed while my heart's still beating
Already died
Suddenly I'm
Still alive
I don't wanna just survive
Give me something to sink all my teeth in
Eat the devil and spit out my demons
Still alive
I already died a thousand times
Went to Hell, but I'm back and I'm breathing
Make me bleed while my heart's still beating
Still alive
Still alive
Still alive
