Stay Alive

Linkin Park · Other Songs - Linkin Park

Your fingers were crossed behind your back before you ever gave me a chance

But now I have learned, to trust myself and I don't need anyone else

No one's here to light the candle

No one's here to light the way

It's something I will have to handle

Someday



I've got to open up my eyes

Find a way to kill the boredom

Watch the time go by, now its time for me to get mine.



Out of room out of places to hide

Backed up in the corner

I know I will stay alive



The lights are still on and I am still here there's nothing left to fear

A vision I've seen, a fire will burn no longer will I wait my turn.

No one's here to light the candle

No one's here to light the way

It's something I will have to handle my way



I've got to open up my eyes

Find a way to kill the boredom

Watch the time go by, now its time for me to get mine.



Out of room out of places to hide

Backed up in the corner

I know I will stay alive



Stay alive



This time its time for me to get mine.



Out of room out of places to hide

Backed up in the corner still I know I will stay alive.
