Be Alive

Okay so I have never written a song before, but my friend told me to try it out. So I did. It might be a bit cheesy, but whatever. I enjoyed writing it. :)

(first verse)
You follow the feeling-
You've kept it so strong
But you've been so broken,
Nothing feels right
And nothing feels wrong

(second verse)
You lost your inner self,
The light had left your eyes,
You were still a part of her,
But you needed to see,
To realize-

(pre chorus)
You can find yourselves inside
The better part you cannot hide

(chorus)
Because this is your time,
The day is yours to chase
Lose those bitter memories
in a far off distant place.
You've gotta fight till you live
You can believe and forgive,
Today You'll be alive

(third verse)
Stop pulling yourself down,
You still have things to do,
Don't fake what you are,
You know what's true,
You know what's you.

(pre chorus variation with dramatic build in music)
You have found yourself inside,
The better part you couldn't hide

(suddenly softer music, eventually builds to chorus)
(chorus)
Because this is your time,
The day is yours to chase
you can lose those bitter memories
in a far off distant place.
You've gotta fight till you live
You can believe and forgive,
Today You'll be alive

(reprise?)
And when you really hear these words you'll know
Those better parts now start to show,
And now you're finally
(long note with slight pause)
Alive
