"She Lives!"

Now I just want to thank you for going insane
Every second you suffer is a loss that I gain
Every breath is a drain down, down into a hole
And your mind is a shrinking thing, it was crushed by your skull

Now you feel time unfolding, deep in your chest
And your body's expanding, now there's none of you left
So I just want to thank you for losing your mind
Yeah you burned just like Joan of Arc, purified by the flames

You're alive, you're alive
You're alive, you're alive
You're alive, you're alive
You're alive

And I just want to thank you for the light that you spread
And magnesium and sulphur and the fear in your head
And I just want to tell you, you're nothing so new
Every time that you touch it, it'll turn against you

Now your future's a cold thing down in the damp ground
And your memory's a lead room containing this sound
So I just want to thank you for killing your mind
All the life that you bleed out, well I steal it for mine

You're alive, you're alive
You're alive, you're alive
You're alive, you're alive
You're alive, you're alive

You're alive, you're alive
You're alive, you're alive
You're alive, you're alive
You're alive
