[Verse 1]
My face is red and my palms are too
When they finally separate
My eyes, they open to the blinding lights
Left and right, but can't see straight
Holding onto things that change
Never seems to go your way
Nothing lasts in peace or pain
Wish I could throw them both away
[Chorus]
Olai, olai
I'm still alive, alive
Olai, olai
I'm still alive, alive
[Verse 2]
How can I be fine with where I am?
I have what I want but want what I need
And I'll knock on this door
Even if my knuckles bleed
And I can't tell the future
But oh, I can feel it
The card's on the table, but I did not deal it
And I'll be holding on today
[Chorus]
Olai, olai
I'm still alive, alive
Olai, olai
I'm still alive, alive
[Bridge]
Forcing all these abstract shapes
Inside this sphere where I reside
I do believe I've earned much better
But I am still alive
Curtains mask the daylight
And the rainfall soaks this rocky climb
I do believe I've earned much better
But I am still alive
Fire burns to smoke and fills my lungs up
While it blinds my eyes
I do believe I've earned much better
But I am still alive
Weak and strong each have their moments
You just have to recognize
One brings heartache, but the other's why
You're still alive
[Chorus]
Olai, olai
I'm still alive, alive
Olai, olai
I'm still alive, alive
[Outro]
Oh-oh, whoa-oh
Oh-oh, whoa-oh
Oh-oh, whoa-oh
Oh-oh, whoa-oh
