There's a power much bigger than hate Still lost in the urge to annihilate But I know I will overcome this You dragged me through the darkest days By the skin of my teeth you restored my fate And I raised myself out of the ashes
Now I'm alive in new light I’m alive in new light Now I'm alive in new light I am alive in new light
And I was carrying the weight of the universe The typical brittle perfectionist Confused by my every decision One day I was being the hero The next I was playing the coward Burnt out by my overreaction
Now I'm alive in new light I’m alive in new light Now I'm alive in new light I am alive in new light
There were times when I thought that my heart would stop Running for a bleak horizon Locked in my obsessions And now I am the raindrop I am the tulip I have learned compassion
Now I'm alive in new light I’m alive in new light Now I'm alive in new light I am alive
