Alive Lyrics By Sia

    i was born in a thunderstorm
    i grew up overnight
    i played alone i played on my own
    i survived
    hey i wanted everything i never had
    like the love that comes with light
    i wore envy and i hated that
    but i survived

    pre
    i had a oneway ticket to a place where all the demons go
    where the wind don’t change
    and nothing in the ground can ever grow
    no hope just lies
    and you’re taught to cry in your pillow
    but i survived

    i’m still breathing i’m still breathing
    i’m still breathing i’m still breathing
    i’m alive i’m alive
    i’m alive i’m alive

    i found solace in the strangest place
    way in the back of my mind
    i saw my life in a stranger’s face
    and it was mine

    pre
    i had a oneway ticket to a place where all the demons go
    where the wind don’t change
    and nothing in the ground can ever grow
    no hope just lies
    and you’re taught to cry in your pillow
    but i survived

    i’m still breathing i’m still breathing
    i’m still breathing i’m still breathing
    i’m alive i’m alive
    i’m alive i’m alive

    post
    you took it all but i’m still breathing
    you took it all but i’m still breathing
    you took it all but i’m still breathing
    you took it all but i’m still breathing
    you took it all but i’m still breathing
    you took it all but i’m still breathing
    you took it all but i’m still breathing
    you took it all but i’m still breathing

    i have made every single mistake
    that you could ever possibly make
    i took and i took and i took what you gave
    but you never noticed that i was in pain
    i knew what i wanted i went out and got it
    i did all the things that you said that i wouldn’t
    i told you that i would never be forgotten
    and all in spite of you

    and i’m still breathing i’m still breathing
    i’m still breathing i’m still breathing
    i’m alive you took it all but i’m still breathing
    you took it all but i’m still breathing
    i’m alive you took it all but i’m still breathing
    you took it all but i’m still breathing
    i’m alive you took it all but i’m still breathing
    you took it all but i’m still breathing
    i’m alive

    i’m alive i’m alive
    i’m alive i’m alive
