I'm Alive - Heather Nova

Your hands were covered in paint

The pillow smothered my cry

You were half charmer half snake

I lived in dream-time

But I’m alive, I survived you

And the bitter taste, the years I wasted

All the hate is gone cause I’m alive

Some nights I’d sleep in the car

Just to escape you

You drove devotion too far

No-one could save you

But I’m alive, I survived you

And the bitter taste, the years I wasted

All the hate is gone cause I’m alive

I still have visions of you

I still have nights to get through

And when the trust isn’t true

I have these visions of you

Burning me down

But I’m alive, I survived you

And the bitter taste, the years I wasted

All the hate is gone cause I’m alive

I’m alive, ride on and fade away

I’m alive, there’s nothing more to say

I’m alive, ride on and fade away

I’m alive, there’s nothing more to say

I’m alive, ride on and fade away

And the bitter taste, the years I wasted

All the hate is gone
