I was sent to you to put things right
And I wanted to help you to put things right
So I blocked out the sun and neglected the moon
And all of my angels were given to you
Ooohh to you...
So I bled what I could for you, sucked out the blood
Tore off my flesh and the rest of what's good
I broke every bone and drained all the marrow
I splintered myself for all your tomorrows
And I twisted my spine and I shattered my skull
Now who is the angel and are we eternal?
Oh Keep your love alive
Keep the one you love alive
OH I'm a believer and believe me we need your kind
And I don't want to die, don't please I don't want to die
Breathe what you expire, my voice will rise!
Keep your love alive keep the one you love alive
Oh I'm a believer and believe me we need your kind
And I don't want to die, don't please I don't want to die
Breathe what you expire, my voice will rise!
But I cut off my nose to spite your embrace
And I blinded myself so you could see grace
I did all I could for you gave you my life
Withstood all the pain, took the blame for what good?
Ohhh what good?
And when all that was left was my heart and my tongue
A few spare things and one black lung
I looked under my skin for the last bits of human
But all I could find was some dust and a tumor
And I twisted my spine and I shattered my skull
Now who is the angel and are we eternal?
Oh Keep your love alive keep the one you love alive
Oh I'm a believer and believe me we need your kind
And I don't want to die, don't please I don't want to die
Breathe what you expire, my voice will rise!
Keep your love alive keep the one you love alive
Oh I'm a believer and believe me we need your kind
And I don't want to die, don't please
I don't want to die Breathe what you expire, my voice will rise!

Yes I'm a believer and believe me we need your kind
And I don't want to die, don't please I don't want to die
