I heard you crying
Somebody stole my soul
How could I be dying
I turned twenty five days ago

We’re all on the ground just crying out
Would somebody save me please
I won’t sit around just thinking about
The troubles that tomorrow brings

I’m dying to be alive, yeah
I’m dying to be alive, yeah
Let’s not go through our lives
Without just dying to be alive

the people you’ve touched
The way you’ve touched them
I hope they’ve touched you too
‘Cause in this life it’s hard to tell
What’s false and what is true

We’re all on the ground just crying out
Would somebody save me please
I won’t sit around just thinking about
The troubles that tomorrow brings

I’m dying to be alive, yeah
Not trying to just survive
Let’s not go through our lives
Without just dying to be alive

And we all come tumbling down
No matter how strong
We all return to the ground
Another day gone
A day closer to fate
And soon we’ll find it’s a little bit too late

The things you see, the way you see them
Will never be seen again
Let’s go through life living on luck
Betting ten thousand to ten
Mistakes I’ve made in this life
I can’t say why or when
But the thing that’s strange is you only live once
I’ll never look back again

I’m dying to be alive, yeah
Not trying to just survive
Let’s not go through our lives
Without just dying to be alive
I’m dying to be alive, yeah
Not trying to just survive
Let’s not go through our lives
Without just dying to be alive
And we all come tumbling down
No matter how strong
We all return to the ground
In the days to come you’ll say why did I wait
You can’t just leave life up to fate
You got to turn it around before it’s too late
