Feeling Alive

Lyrics

I wake up every morning feeling so drained The sunlight burns my eyes, I wanna run away The same routine goes on, my life's become so plain I'm still searching for my place in this world of pain This job is suffocating, I'm drowning in the dark Fake smiles all around me while I'm falling apart I'd love to break away But invisible chains keep holding me down A prisoner of my pain I just wanna feel alive Stop smiling just to hide my nights Fill the emptiness inside of me That grows a little more with every step I take Be happy without pretending Find someone whose love I'm depending on And finally become someday The person I've dreamed of being all my life Even in a crowded room I feel alone Nobody truly understands what I've been through Too many disappointments made my trust disappear Now I question every face and every look I see Kindness and compassion feel so far away I've paid the price and learned to keep my heart at bay I protect myself, even when I slowly fade I'd love to move ahead But every obstacle keeps blocking my way Held back by all my pain I just wanna feel alive Stop smiling just to hide my nights Fill the emptiness inside of me That grows a little more with every step I take Be happy without pretending Find someone whose love I'm depending on And finally become someday The person I've dreamed of being all my life Through all these trials I've risen stronger than before I learn from my mistakes and turn them into strength I finally feel ready to break these chains apart And overcome the walls that kept me in the dark I'll turn my pain into a fire That lights the road ahead I just wanna feel alive Stop smiling just to hide my nights Fill the emptiness inside of me That grows a little more with every step I take Be happy without pretending Find someone whose love I'm depending on And finally become someday The person I've dreamed of being all my life
