I'll be your heartbeat, I'll be under your skin

You'll be my saint, and I'll gladly be your sin

Everything I've promised, will hold true

If you have to hurt, I will hurt with you

When we wake up, when we're no longer known

When we make our peace with time

For you, I'll stay alive

We both know, my way is forever

Just give me the reasons, and I will pen the letters

Questioned or accused is this any way to live your life?

To only live and love, beneath fluorescent lights

When we wake up, when we're no longer young

When we wage our war on time

For you, I'll stay alive

For you, I'll stay alive

When we wake up

When we push our last breath from our lungs

When we question why we're alive

For you, I will try

When we wake up, when we're no longer known

When we make our peace with time

For you, I'll stay alive

For you, I'll stay alive

For you, I'll stay alive

For you, I'll stay alive
