Lyrics

I had a life one time
I had a dream
I'd been across the world and so much I'd seen
I had ambition and passion pouring out of my confident soul
But then the sun stopped shining everything went so damn cold and
I didn't know what to do and
I didn't know what to say
I didn't have any idea what it really was like to like to live this way and
I live this way and I know this life
I have been blessed but I know that I could

Lose it all and fall right down
Forget my heart and hit the ground
If I stop living like I am alive
I need to feel the fervor in my veins
Breathe each breath and live insane
And reaffirm this feeling I'm alive

I lose myself sometimes and
Don't notice pain
Forget the world around me and play this game
Become a follower of all the things my heart can't stand
And while it's only human I could be a better man
I have no use for heaven
I know what's right and wrong
I need to live my virtue just do that and just be strong and
I won't take life for granted
Oh cause not everything's free
There comes a time in life when things don't come so easily and
I live this way and I know this life
I have been blessed and I know that I could

Lose it all and fall right down
Forget my heart and hit the ground
If I stop living like I am alive
I need to feel the fervor in my veins
Breathe each breath and live insane
And reaffirm this feeling I'm alive

Breathe it in and breathe it out and
Feel the fervor, feel the fervor
Breathe it in and breathe it out and
Feel the fervor, feel the fervor
Breathe it in and breathe it out and
Feel the fervor, feel the fervor
Breathe it in and breathe it in, breathe it in and breathe it in again
Breathe it in again
Reaffirm that I'm alive
Yea and I'm alive
