i've been killed a million times and every time a different way
tried to grow a little wiser but i still died every day
though, i've been both dead and living i still try to keep a smile
cause my heart will be jump-started and i'll come back for a while
but i face the daily terror that i just might pass away
and my life would be erased only to start another day
i can't blame the gods for killing me...its made me a star
but i tell you i'm not satisfied... with things the way they are

keep myself alive...keep myself alive
i don't like being dead and bloody...i want to survive

well, i've been drowned when i went swimming
burned up in a microwave
and i've been a critter's dinner...i've been buried in a grave
i've been left alone to bleed but yet they haven' t killed my soul
and my legend's getting better...superstardom is my goal
i've been dead a million times and yet i always find my way
and although i just keep dying, i'll be back again someday
cause i've never been a quitter...i will go the extra mile
and i'll be back where i started...though recently departed

keep myself alive...keep myself alive
i don't like being dead and bloody...i want to survive

do i think i'm off the hook today ?
no, i think i'm two steps closer to my grave

keep myself alive...keep myself alive
i don't like being dead and bloody...i want to survive
