about

Ashes of our World will fall, Things remembered
Will be lost I feel the fleeing
Of my ghost

The Battle

lyrics

TAKE ME ALIVE
Lyrics-Maggie Carton/ Music-CM Carroll

VERSE 1
Ashes of our
World will fall

Things remembered
Will be lost

I feel the fleeing
Of my ghost
But my feet are firmly planted

I don’t recognize
Any of your souls

Excuse me for
My ruthless cross

I feel the beating
In my heart

And the beast inside
Is sleeping

BRIDGE
Oooooh ooooh ooooh
Ooooh ooooh

CHORUS
You’ll never take me alive
You’ll never take me alive
No you’ll never take me alive
You’ll never take me

VERSE 2
You think the fear
Will have me lost

Misguided from
These twisted thoughts

The fighter inside me
Will never stop

So Remember me
Just how you want

Bleeding
For the broken ones

And Standing for
The weakened

This life isn’t easy
But death is

And soon the storms
over all of us

BRIDGE
Oooooh ooooh ooooh
Oooooh ooooh

CHORUS
You’ll never take me alive
You’ll never take me alive
No you’ll never take me alive
You’ll never take me

You’ll never take me alive
You’ll never take me alive
No you’ll never take me alive
You’ll never take me
(Spoken)
And the Gods spoke from all around
The spirit you seek in the water
Is a reflection of yourself

CHORUS
You’ll never take me alive
You’ll never take me alive
No you’ll never take me alive
You’ll never take me

You’ll never take me alive
You’ll never take me alive
No you’ll never take me alive
You’ll never take me

You’ll never take me alive
You’ll never take me alive
No you’ll never take me alive
You’ll never take me
