We Were Alive, We Were Alone

We Were Alive, We Were Alone
Written By: Drew Stedman

Lyrics:

We woke up in a world of life
And gazed upon the evening sky
One hundred billion lights
Heaven spirits to guide the night
With a twinkle in our eye
Deep in Eden, cradled tight
The morning-god began to rise
On the dawn of the human mind

We were alive.

Then we came down from the trees
To golden plains and crystal seas
And we spread our holy seed
As far as the eye could see
Then we let our garden grow
And we reaped what we had sown
But somewhere deep within our soul
We wanted to be known

We were alone.

Then the voices in our head
Spoke of life beyond the dead
And every word that they said
Felt like heaven's very breath
We built alters to the sun
We searched for the chosen one
When we looked back at all we'd done
We still stood where we had begun
All the gods that we had made
Could not pull us past the grave
Still we worshipped, still we prayed
Still we were longing to be saved
We could be right, we could be wrong
While we are weak we still are strong
Searching for the place where we belong
Our salvation won't be long

We will live on
We will live on
We will live on.
