Skillet - Good to Be Alive lyrics

When all you got are broken dreams
Just need a second chance
And everything you want to be
Gets taken from your hands
We hold onto each other
All we have is all we need
Because one way or another
We always make it you and me

This life could almost kill ya
When you’re trying to survive
It’s good to be here with ya
And it’s good to be alive

It’s good to be alive
I was lost and I was gone
I was almost dead inside
You and me against the world
It’s a beautiful night it’s good to be alive

It’s good to be alive it’s good to be alive
It’s good to be alive it’s good to be alive
It’s good to be alive

Driving down this highway soaking up the sun
Got miles to go before we get home
And the journey’s just begun
We hold onto each other
You are everything I need
You feel like forever
You’re a second chance for me

This life could almost kill ya
When you’re trying to survive
It’s good to be here with ya
And it’s good to be alive

It’s good to be alive
I was lost and I was gone
I was almost dead inside
You and me against the world
It’s a beautiful night it’s good to be alive

It’s a beautiful night yeah, it’s all right
It’s good to be alive

This life could almost kill ya
When you’re trying to survive
It’s good to be here with ya
And it’s good to be alive

It’s good to be alive
I was lost and I was gone
I was almost dead inside
You and me against the world
It’s a beautiful night it’s good to be alive

And it’s good to be alive
It’s good to be alive
I was lost and I was gone
I was almost dead inside
You and me against the world
It’s a beautiful night it’s good to be alive

It’s a beautiful night yeah, it’s all right
It’s good to be alive

Despair, you come to me
With your poison and your misery
Oh oh death you come to sting
With your poison and your misery
Death death death death death
Death surrounds me, singing to me softly
Let the shadow spreads his wings around me
In the night, close your eyes
Or it means to come in
This is how it feels when
You're bent and broken this is how it feels
When your dignity's stolen
Singing to me softly
In the night, close your eyes
Or it means to come in
I'll be here to call back
I can feel the shadow creeping in my mind
Don't close your eyes
