Good to Be Alive

[Verse 1]
When all you got are broken dreams
Just need a second chance
And everything you want to be
Gets taken from your hands
We hold onto each other
All we have is all we need
Because one way or another
We always make it you and me

[Pre-Chorus]
This life could almost kill ya
When you’re trying to survive
It’s good to be here with ya
And it’s good to be alive

[Chorus]
It’s good to be alive
I was lost and I was gone
I was almost dead inside
You and me against the world
It’s a beautiful night
It’s good to be alive

[Hook]
It’s good to be alive
It’s good to be alive
It’s good to be alive
It’s good to be alive
It’s good to be alive

[Verse 2]
Driving down this highway
Soaking up the sun
Got miles to go before we get home
And the journey’s just begun
We hold onto each other
You are everything I need
You feel like forever
You’re a second chance for me

[Pre-Chorus]
This life could almost kill ya
When you’re trying to survive
It’s good to be here with ya
And it’s good to be alive

[Chorus]
It’s good to be alive
I was lost and I was gone
I was almost dead inside
You and me against the world
It’s a beautiful night
It’s good to be alive

[Bridge]
It’s a beautiful night
Yeah, it’s all right
It’s good to be alive

[Pre-Chorus]
This life could almost kill ya
When you’re trying to survive
It’s good to be here with ya
And it’s good to be alive

[Chorus]
It’s good to be alive
I was lost and I was gone
I was almost dead inside
You and me against the world
It’s a beautiful night
It’s good to be alive

[Verse 3]
And it’s good to be alive
It’s good to be alive
I was lost and I was gone
I was almost dead inside
You and me against the world
It’s a beautiful night
It’s good to be alive

[Outro]
It’s a beautiful night
Yeah, it’s all right
It’s good to be alive

["Despair" Interlude: Reese Reynolds, Chamber Choir, John Cooper, Jen Ledger]
Despair, you come to me, with your poison and your misery
Oh oh death you come to sting with your poison and your misery
Death death death death death
Death surrounds me, singing to me softly
Let the shadow spreads his wings around me
In the night, close your eyes, or it means to come in
This is how it feels when you're bent and broken
This is how it feels when your dignity's stolen
Singing to me softly
In the night, close your eyes, or it means to come in
I'll be here to call back
I can feel the shadow creeping in my mind
Don't close your eyes
