RefrãoVerse 1:
G Imagine this: we make things right D So beautiful, we cling tonight Em To all our dreams, we pin them up C We lose our minds if we lose our hope G We swear to change, but we bottle it D Stick to our guns and all our sins Em We bury fear, we drink to it C We might cheat death if we worship itG So we can stay alive D Our sex, our power, our drive Em We lose ourselves inside C So we can feel aliveVerse 2:
G You're the one who should be on trial D For all your hate and your denial Em Be careful what it is you break C Every broken thing can't be fixed G And all those fragile things we are D They find their voice, they find their power Em They take a grip around your throat C They keep squeezing till your life runs outG So we can stay alive D Our sex, our power, our drive Em We lose ourselves inside C So we can feel aliveBridge:
G (Masochistic victim sadist D Victor vanquish valour sadness Em C Lust and love, our lives, our blindness) G (We can feel alive) D All alone we fight the fear Em By ourselves in every way C (We can feel alive) G All our lust, all our greed D All our hate, we're on our knees Em (We can feel) C Hear us beg, hear us prayG We can stay alive D We can stay alive Em We can stay alive C We can stay alive G D We can stay alive Em C We can stay alive
