The Fight Revisited (Live)

I can't go on pouring my heart out onto paper
Because it kills me every time, there's got to be another way
If music is a shield and every voice a sword
Our songs become our battles, but we certainly do not win them all

I never asked for this
I never wanted any more than I deserved
I feel like I should run away and hide
But that shows cowardice
And if courage taught me anything
I'll stand in that spotlight

'Cause you
Gave me
The greatest gift of all
I'll try
To make you feel

Alive

How many times
How many times can I recite the same old lines
Before they lose all meaning to me
I hope it never dies
'Cause I don't ever wanna lose the way it felt
To put those things down on the pages of my life

The way it felt to write
It made me feel

Alive

Long nights in memory
A life of mine that seems so long ago
With days of sun and sea and company
That's never left my side
Seems like a century
Has passed but still the fight it rages on and on
And never would the victor see the spoils of war

But still I breathe and see sunlight
I know that I'm

Alive

So I'll go on pouring my heart out on to paper
And though it kills me every time I see that it's the only way
With music as my shield, my voice is still a sword
My songs have been my battles, but I've made it through
And I am still alive
