Lyrics of Alive by Khalid

verse

Unread texts and missed calls
Told everyone I turned my phone off
Didn't ask for help and now I'm lost
Life comes in phases (Phases)
Consequences and mistakes
I'm sorry that it's taken me so long

verse

Mister, mister, please let off your power
Give me half an hour, or better yet, a few
Only sweet until it all goes sour
But life is what you make it
And then there's more to lose

chorus

Gatekeeper, can you show me more to life?
Lately, I've been living out of spite
Grim Reaper, just give me one more night
I need another chance to say goodbye
I shouldn't have to die to feel alive

verse

Here's the thing with disappearing
You can yell and no one hears you
Times like this, I need a ear
When I finally have so much to say
Wish I could see your face, oh
And do what I have to stop the tears

verse

Sister, sister, please know that I'm sorry
I wish you could've stopped me
From falling off the hill
Only sweet until it all goes sour
But life is what you make it
Until it gets too real (Until it gets too real)

chorus

Gatekeeper, can you show me more to life?
Lately, I've been living out of spite
Grim Reaper, just give me one more night
I need another chance to say goodbye
I shouldn't have to die to feel alive
Writer(s): Khalid Robinson, John Hill, Emily Warren, John Andrew Blanda, Jonathan Joseph Hoskins
