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
