The Cure - ALAZKA

I was long gone

Vision fading away

But against the odds

I found the best in me

There’s a place

Cold and dark

In the back of my head

With a voice

Telling me

That I’m better off dead

I was lost

In the dark

But I’m leaving it all behind

For the last time

I’ll feel like I’m

Losing my focus

Every time I’m on my knees

Heavy hearts sing of defeat

Leaving me hopeless

Say it’s not the times I failed

But the moments I prevailed

When I opened my eyes

Realized

That I could pay the price

All I lost in the war

Before

A life worth dying, life worth dying for

Fill my lungs

Feel the air

There’s a fire inside

Let it breathe

Finally free

There is nothing to hide

Never surrender

Every second that I need

I’ll get back up on my feet

More than pretenders

Everything that I erased

But the image of your face

When I opened my eyes

Realized

That I could pay the price

All I lost in the war

Before

A life worth dying, life worth dying for
