I'm Alive Lyrics - Heather Nova

Your hands were covered in paint 

The pillow smothered my cry 

You were half charmer half snake 

I lived in dreamtime 

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 

I have these visions of you 

And 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

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
