I'm Alive - Lyrics - Heather Nova

Your hands were covered in paint The pillow smothered my cry You were half charmer half snake I lived in dreamtime But I'm alive; I survived you And the bitter taste, the years I wasted All the hate is gone 'Cause I'm alive Some nights I'd sleep in the car Just to escape you You drove devotion too far No-one could save you But I'm alive; I survived you And the bitter taste, the years I wasted All the hate is gone 'Cause I'm Alive I still have visions of you I still have nights to get through And when the trust isn't true I have these visions of you, visions of you But I'm alive; I survived you And the bitter taste, the years I wasted All the hate is gone 'cause I'm alive Ride on and fade away There's nothing more to say Ride on and fade away There's nothing more to say
