LYRICS:

****************************************************

Look around, turn around

You just might fall to the ground

Sail away, break away

Damage done nothing to say

All my live I've felt like an outcast

But not anymore, a thing of the past

Feel the sun, got to run

Feels like life has just begun

All is new different view

So many things that I will do

I'm leaving behind the things I don't need

And with confidence I'm planting the seed

I'M STILL ALIVE

I'M READY TO FEEL THE WIND IN MY HAIR

AND I KNOW THERE ARE SO MANY THINGS TO SHARE

I WILL WRITE MY STORY AGAIN

MASTERPLAN OF A NEW KIND

I WAS LOST BUT NOW I'M FOUND

I'M STILL ALIVE

I'M STILL ALIVE

I'M READY TO FEEL THE WIND IN MY HAIR

AND I KNOW THERE ARE SO MANY THINGS TO SHARE

I WILL WRITE MY STORY AGAIN

MASTERPLAN OF A NEW KIND

I WAS LOST BUT NOW I'M FOUND

I'M STILL ALIVE

I'M READY TO FEEL THE WIND IN MY HAIR

AND I KNOW THERE ARE SO MANY THINGS TO SHARE

I WILL WRITE MY STORY AGAIN

MASTERPLAN OF A NEW KIND

I WAS LOST BUT NOW I'M FOUND

I'M STILL ALIVE
