Song Lyrics

"Good To Be Alive"

by Skillet
Album: Rise (Deluxe Edition)

When all you've got are broken dreams
Just need a second chance
And everything you want to be
Gets taken from your hands

We hold on to each other
All we have is all we need
Cause one way or another
We always make it, you and me

This life can almost kill you
When you're trying to survive
It's good to be here with you

It's good to be alive
It's good to be alive
I was lost and I was gone
I was almost dead inside
You and me against the world
It's a beautiful night
It's good to be alive

Driving down this highway
Soaking up the sun
Got miles to go before we get home
And the journey's just begun

We hold on to each other
You are everything I need
You feel like forever
You're a second chance for me

This life can almost kill you
When you're trying to survive
It's good to be here with you

It's good to be alive
It's good to be alive
I was lost and I was gone
I was almost dead inside
You and me against the world
It's a beautiful night
It's good to be alive

It's a beautiful night
Yeah, it's alright
It's good to be alive

This life can almost kill you
When you're trying to survive

It's good to be alive
It's good to be alive
It's good to be alive
It's good to be alive
It's good to be alive
It's good to be alive
It's good to be alive
It's good to be alive
I was lost and I was gone
I was almost dead inside
You and me against the world
It's a beautiful night
It's good to be alive

It's a beautiful night
Yeah, it's alright
It's good to be alive

(Interlude 1:01)
Despair, You come to me, with your poison and your misery
Oh, Death you come to sting, with your poison and your misery
(Death, Death, Death, Death)
Death surrounds me, singing to me softly
Death, the shadow spreads his wings around me
(Death, Death, I sense you coming)
In the night, close your eyes, I hear you coming
This is how it feels when you're bent and broken
(Death surrounds me, singing to me softly)
This it how feels when your dignity's stolen
(Death, Death, I sense you coming)
In the night, close your eyes, I hear you coming
I can feel the shadow creeping in my mind
Don't close your eyes
