The day the lights went out I came alive In the darkness where you died They laid the hammer down Your mother cried I forced the spear into your side
I’m alive because you became lonely I’m alive because you took my shame I’m alive because you became guilty I’m alive
The day the blinders were taken from my eyes I held my heavy head and softly cried The love you gave me is magnified By the price you paid to save my life
I’m alive because you became lonely I’m alive because you took my shame I’m alive because you became guilty I’m alive
You gave your life I give you mine
I’m alive because you became lonely I’m alive because you took my shame I’m alive because you became guilty I’m alive, I’m alive, I’m alive
