You’re Alive

Dying for something not worth living for, 

Losing a battle to win the ultimate war, 

Is a reminder you’re alive. 

Hope stronger than despair, 

Accepting life’s not fair, 

Is a reminder you’re alive. 

Crawling through the night towards a new dawn, 

Falling hard but coming back strong, 

Is a reminder you’re alive. 

The blazing dreams in your eyes, 

Standing tall through your fall and rise, 

Is a reminder you’re alive. 

And that is why, 

We’ve got to move on and fly. 

Keep our heads up high, 

Beyond the limits of the generous sky! 

Because, you’re alive.
