Alive

Rains refuse to end
Why can't my mind bend
As I walk from her
Like calm water 'round an island

Like an Island
Like an island—island

I am alive
Even if I'm meant to die
Hands thrown high
Keep you from the sky
Even if I'm meant to die

In a garden of stone
You play with a paintbrush on one foot
You make the cold have a face
More than I ever could have done for you

I am alive
Even if I'm meant to die
Hands thrown high
Keep you from the sky
Even if I'm meant to die

I felt the future one night
After I had played with fire
We are two doves
We have flown the coop we can't go back

I am alive
Even if I'm meant to die
Hands thrown high
Keep you from the sky
Even if I'm meant to die

I am alive
Even if I'm meant to die
Hands thrown high
Keep you from the sky
Even if I'm meant to die
