Out Alive Lyrics

[Verse 1]
I'm standing on my own two feet
Somewhere hanging in between
My life and the death of me
Fate doesn't leave us time to waste
Weaving through the human race
'Til we run out of air to breathe

[Chorus]
But no one's getting out alive
All the gold on earth, it won't buy time
So we might as well give up the fight
Live it up tonight
No one's getting out alive
No one's getting out alive
No one's getting out alive

[Verse 2]
Life, a beautiful and fragile thing
Floating in the galaxy
I'm gonna let it set me free
Now is all we really ever have
Open your eyes and don't look back
Now gimme something to believe

[Chorus]
'Cause no one's getting out alive
All the gold on earth, it won't buy time
So we might as well give up the fight
Live it up tonight
No one's getting out alive
No one's getting out alive
No one's getting out alive
[Instrumental Break]

[Chorus]
So no one's getting out alive
All the gold on earth, it won't buy time
So we might as well give up the fight
Live it up tonight
No one's getting out alive
No one's getting out alive
No one's getting out alive
No one's getting out alive
No one's getting out alive

  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]

About

Genius Annotation

“Out Alive” strongly supports one of the overarching themes of Warrior: that everyone should live as if every day is their last. The song bluntly recognizes the inevitability of death, and calls on people to “live it up” as much as they can while they’re still alive.
