I refuse to die

 

I will never leave you

You are the one

I’ve been dreaming of

With you

I am never old

 

My perfect imagination

My joy and liberation

The tide in my mind

Love me more than

Thousand times

I refuse to die

Understand me

I refuse to die

 

Well, it is so strange

What I sing here

The ideas I believe in

My listeners are right

I refuse to die

Like I did so many times

My shallow life was my worst crime

I had to change

I became myself

No matter what it costs

I sing it loud

I want you to post

So everyone knows

I refuse to die

 

For years, for many times

I was half dead in my life

After those years and blurred times

My self can expand

It can rise

With you even higher

That scares

I refuse to die

Understand me

I refuse to die
