Oh my pen ran out the room,   And slammed the door behind,   I found it leaking in the scene,   Coz I'd been so unkind.      When I look into the mirror for what's written on my face,   My reflections got nothing to say,   And when i try to make eye contact my face pays no attention,   He just turns and looks the other way.      [bridge]   So I take a walk outside,   to get me some fresh air,   The cold wind bites my cheek,   and messes up my hair.   but I say      [chorus]   I   Whoa ohoh I   Yeah I'm alive   [/chorus]      Oh tonight I feel a shadow of myself,   Even my silhouette's getting faint,   Tomorrow morning in the cold air I go out and catch a new one,   oh I'm wiping clean my slate.      [bridge]   When the world conspires against me,   I grit my teeth and clench my fists,   I've been faithful to my dreams,   I've been loved and I've been missed.   So I say      [chorus]   I   Whoa ohoh I   Yeah I (whoa ohoh)   I (whoa ohoh)   I (whoa ohoh oh)   I'm alive!
