Dead and alive

[Verse 1]
You light me up just to watch me burn,
a lesson I’ll never learn,
your voice cuts deep, sweet like a sin,
and I crawl right back again.
You’re the poison and the cure in one,
a midnight bullet and a rising sun,
I can’t escape, I don’t even try,
you kill me slow but I can’t say goodbye. 

[Pre-Chorus]
You got your claws inside my chest,
every breath you take steals the rest,
I’m bleeding out but I can’t hide —
you make the pain feel justified. 

[Chorus]
You make me feel dead and alive,
like lightning burning through the sky,
a broken heart that still survives,
you tear me down, I come to life.
You’re the chaos that I crave,
the beauty in the grave,
you make me feel dead and alive —
and I don’t ever want to survive. 

[Verse 2]
Your shadow’s tattooed on my skin,
a ghost I keep inviting in,
I see your face in every flame,
I whisper love but it sounds like pain.
You’re a nightmare wrapped in lace,
I find redemption in your embrace,
I’m lost, but baby, that’s alright,
I found my peace in the fight. 

[Pre-Chorus]
Your touch is war, your kiss is death,
you steal my soul with every breath,
and even when I break apart —
you play my ribs just like a harp. 

[Chorus]
You make me feel dead and alive,
like lightning burning through the sky,
a broken heart that still survives,
you tear me down, I come to life.
You’re the chaos that I crave,
the beauty in the grave,
you make me feel dead and alive —
and I don’t ever want to survive. 

[Bridge] 
Oh, I’m drowning in your hurricane,
but somehow I love the pain,
you’re my cross to bear, my holy sin,
and I’d die to feel again.
(Yeah, I’d die to feel again…) 

[Guitar Solo / Breakdown]
Screaming silence in my veins,
your name’s a drug, I can’t escape,
I’m a sinner, you’re my saint,
heaven’s gone, but hell feels great. 

[Final Chorus]
You make me feel dead and alive,
like thunder crashing through my mind,
you pull me down, I start to fly,
I’m burning out but it feels divine.
You’re the chaos that I crave,
the beauty in the grave,
you make me feel dead and alive —
and I’ll bleed for you every time. 

[Outro]
Yeah, you kill me slow, but I can’t let go,
you’re my death, my high, my holy glow.
Dead and alive inside your eyes —
and that’s where I’ll lie tonight.
