[Verse 1]
These days, lately, I've been chasing shadows in the dark
I've forgotten the light
And nothing's black and white, living in the greys
Falling through the hourglass of time, time, time
I've been turning the tide, tide, tonight

[Chorus]
Come a little closer, closer to the flame
Holding in the fire, tearing up the frame
And I'm still alive
Hey, hey, I'm still alive
Come a little closer, closer to the pain
Ashes and desire, burning in my veins
And I'm still alive
Hey, hey, I'm still alive

[Verse 2]
Wasted, weightless, suspended like a puppet on a string
But I'll never give in
I've been on my own, I've been feeling low
The bruises left will never ever show, no, no
And I'm letting it go, go, woah

[Chorus]
Come a little closer, closer to the flame
Holding in the fire, tearing up the frame
And I'm still alive
Hey, hey, I'm still alive
Come a little closer, closer to the pain
Ashes and desire, burning in my veins
And I'm still alive
Hey, hey, I'm still alive
[Bridge]
I don't wanna let this go
Pull myself from the undertow
Did I push you out? Did I let you in?
Start it over and over again
I said I don't wanna let this go
Pull myself from the undertow
Did I push you out? Did I let you in?
Start it over and over again

[Interlude]
Come a little closer, closer to the flame
Holding in the fire, tearing up the frame
And I'm still alive

[Chorus]
Come a little closer, closer to the flame
Holding in the fire, tearing up the frame
And I'm still alive
Hey, hey, I'm still alive
Come a little closer, closer to the pain
Ashes and desire, burning in my veins
And I'm still alive
Hey, hey, I'm still alive
And I feel alive
Hey, hey, I'm still alive
