[Verse 1]
Dead is the new alive
Despair's the new survival
A pointless point of view

[Refrain]
Give in, give in, give in, give in
You play the game
You'll never win

[Verse 2]
Dead is the new alive
Life's only living rival
A casket built for two

[Refrain]
Give in, give in, give in, give in
You play the game
You'll never win

[Chorus]
So take me now or take me never
I won't wait
You're already late
So say goodbye or say forever
Choose your fate
How else can we survive?
Dead is the new alive
[Verse 3]
Dead is the new alive
A gothic play revival
The last act of the show

[Refrain]
Give in, give in, give in, give in
You play the game
You'll never win

[Chorus]
So take me now or take me never
I won't wait
You're already late
So say goodbye or say forever
Choose your fate
How else can we survive?
Dead is the new alive

[Outro]
What is a day without a blessed night?
And what is peace without a blessed fight?
What is a day without a blessed night?
And what is peace without a blessed, blessed, blessed fight?
A quick taste of the poison, a quick twist of the knife
When the obsession with death
The obsession with death becomes a way of life
A quick taste of the poison, a quick twist of the knife
When the obsession with death
The obsession with death becomes a way of life
Alive, alive, alive
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
Alive, alive, alive
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
Alive, alive, alive
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
Alive, alive, alive
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh

Dead is the new alive
Alive, alive, alive
Dead is the new alive
Alive, alive, alive
Alive
Dead is the new alive
Alive
Dead is the new alive
Dead is the new alive
Dead is the new alive
Dead is the new alive
Dead is the new alive
Dead is the new alive
Dead is the new alive
Dead is the new alive
