Lyrics of I want to live

Sometimes i feel like i need to shake myself, to wake myself
I feel like i'm just sleep walkin' through my life
It's like i'm swimmin' in an ocean of emotion
But still some how slowly goin' numb inside

I don't like who i'm becomin'
I know i've gotta do somethin'
Before my life passes right by

I wanna cry like the rain, cry like the rain
To shine like the sun on a beautiful mornin'
Sing to the heavens like a church bell ringin'
Fight with the devil and go down swingin'

Fly like a bird roll like a stone
Love like i ain't afraid to be alone
Take everything that this world has to give
I wanna live

Sometimes i wonder why i work so hard, to guard my heart
Well i hardly feel anything at all
I've spent my whole life building up this ivory tower
Now that i'm in it i keep wishin' it would fall

So i could feel the ground beneath me
Really taste this air i'm breathin'
And know that i'm alive

I wanna cry like the rain, cry like the rain
To shine like the sun on a beautiful mornin'
Sing to the heavens like a church bell ringin'
Fight with the devil and go down swingin'

Fly like a bird roll like a stone
Love like i ain't afraid to be alone
Take everything that this world has to give
I wanna live, i wanna live

Something deep inside keeps saying
Life is like a vapor
Its gone in just a twinklin' of an eye

I wanna cry like the rain, cry like the rain
To shine like the sun on a beautiful mornin'
Sing to the heavens like a church bell ringin'
Fight with the devil and go down swingin'

Fly like a bird roll like a stone
Love like i ain't afraid to be alone
Take everything that this world has to give
I wanna take any breath i can get, i wanna live
Yeah yeah
