Metalingus (Live) Lyrics
Alter Bridge
Lyrics
I've been defeated
And brought down
Dropped to my knees when hope ran out
The time has come to change my ways
On this day I see clearly
Everything has come to life
A bitter place and a broken dream
And we'll leave it all, leave it all behind
I'll never long for what might have been
Regret won't waste my life again
I won't look back
I'll fight to remain
On this day I see clearly
Everything has come to life
A bitter place and a broken dream
And we'll leave it all, leave it all behind
On this day it's so real to me
Everything has come to life
Another chance to chase a dream
Another chance to feel chance to feel alive
Fear will kill me, all I could be
Lift these sorrows
Let me breathe, could you set me free
Could you set me free
On this day I see clearly
Everything has come to life
A bitter place and a broken dream
And we'll leave it all behind
On this day it's so real to me
Everything has come to life
Another chance to chase a dream
Another chance to feel chance to feel alive
