Artist vs. Poet
Alive
The night has come again
And still I am alone
This time more than ever

A feeling I had never felt before
And I don't want to remember
It's taking hold of me now

You drove in town to see me
But you turned into a messenger
Oh, with news I never thought would hit my ears

It's now numbing me inside
Numbing me from this life and I
Want so badly to disappear

Maybe someday I can stand again
And maybe soon I can learn to wash my hands off this
And start anew but I need you now to mend my heart
Because you're the only one that can keep me alive
Tonight

You're everything to me
My whole world, entire being
The one thing I hold true in my life

What made you do this to me?
Did you want me to set you free?
It tears me up inside every night

And maybe someday I can stand again
Maybe soon I can learn to wash my hands off this
And start anew but I need you now to mend my heart
Because you're the only one who can keep me alive
Tonight

And everything will be just fine
I just want it to be perfect
I just want it to be perfect

And everything will be just fine
I just want it to be perfect
I just want it to be perfect

Maybe someday I can stand again
And maybe soon, I can learn to wash my hands off this
And start anew but I need you now to mend my heart
Because you're the only one that can keep me alive
Tonight
