Blind Guardian - I'm Alive Lyrics






I run through the dark fields
Of the plains
Reach level 99
The pain cuts deep down
Through my vain
How will I break the ice
Welcome to my reality
Dream forever
Sunlight instead of neon light
How will it be
Welcome to my grave
And feel the dream is over
Nothing can stop me
I reach out for the top

Caught in an old cage
The system failed
Built up on lies
Now I see that I'm alone
In asylum's cage
I'm left alone

I'm alive my friend
I can feel the shadows everywhere
I'm alive
I left the shadows
Far behind me
Another one is waiting in the dark

They say the system keeps
The last chance to survive
Caught in this labyrinth
Of walls and lot's of lies
Then I began to understand
There's more above then ice
To reach the top
I crept deep down
The answers given in the past
A senseless worth
In useless brains
Magic runes
Without a meaning
Besides the dark
There should be nothing left

Caught in an old cage
The system failed
Built up on lies
Now I see that I'm alone
In asylum's cage
I'm left alone

I'm alive my friend
I can feel the shadows everywhere
I'm alive
I left the shadows
Far behind me
Another one is waiting in the dark

[SOLO]

Outside they say death is waiting
But it creeps down through the shaft
Finds pleasure in our helpless fear
Fills empty rooms with morbid thought
They've locked the door
And hold the key

Sitting beside you
When silent screams
Changing my mind and dreams
Oh, it's never ending

Caught in an old cage
The system failed
Built up on lies
Now I see that I'm alone
In asylum's cage
I'm left alone

I'm alive my friend
I can feel the shadows everywhere
I'm alive
I left the shadows
Far behind me
Another one is waiting
In the dark
I'M ALIVE!

  1. K.... A....

    I love how Prog this song is, I would love to see them do a full on Prog Metal album (people will now argue they already did but imo this was still very much power with prog influences)

    K.... A....

    Kevboard Arts This is Speed metal/power metal not proggresive metal.

    K.... A....

    @Statoil Bensin this is more prog than some prog I listen to.
    it has basically all the trademarks

    K.... A....

    Kevboard Arts Can you describe the trademarks? I dont listen to much prog metal other than Power metal, Black metal bands and Death metal bands that are progressive.

    K.... A....

    2:14 First time hearing this: W.A.S.P. went full-on thrash metal!!

  2. S.... R....

    best song on the album imo

    Best Powermetal (in my Age Area it's called Speedmetal!!!) Album of all time!!! This song kicks ass!!!! Awesome!!! And from all Metal Bands are Blind Guardian in the Top 10 listed!!!

    F.... B....

    Farold BolzenwerfeR This song is more of a speed metal song then power metal in my opinion

  7. C.... C....

    BADASS RECORD!!! I think the best albums of blind guardian was with thomen stauch..more powerfull and more groove. I can't hear the last albums with the new drummer has no soul groove and clear sound..sorry but bring thomen back and create masterpieces like that.

    C.... C....

    I Think he's done well to be half as good as Stauch! He was great at Bloodstock last year :^)

    C.... C....

    Thomen Stauch is like the power-metal-ish Dave Lombardo.

  8. C.... D....

    IIIIIIM AAAAAAALIIIIIIIIVEEE!!!!!!!

  17. C.... R....

    last good album blind guardian

    C.... R....

    Francesco Mariotti And so is A Night at the Opera

    C.... R....

    Their best album for sure but in no way is it their last good one.

    C.... R....

    Cezar Rodrigues the only bad album of BG is a twist of a myth (and is a bad album for BG, isnt a bad album persé)

    C.... R....

    Hernest Vay Well yeah,ATITM is pretty under the BG standards,though it has some pretty strong songs like "Otherland" and "Turn the Page"

    C.... R....

    Blind Bosnian I completly agree with your point

  18. k.... ....

    One of my favourite BG songs from one of my favourite BG albums. Amazing band and they are even more amazing live.

  19. A.... R....

    This is incredibly good

  20. l.... ....

    So damn good...

  21. b.... ....

    I introduced a friend of mind to Blind Guardian. First, she was amazed by the magic of The Bard's song, then this one hit her straight for 5 and a half minutes of pure breathtaking awesomness ! She then quickly borrowed half my BG records
    I guess I made yet another contribution to expand the big BG family today !

    b.... ....

    You're a good friend lol

    b.... ....

    Epic story,dude

    b.... ....

    you better have married her broder

    b.... ....

    Not just the BG family, but to the family of METAL.
