Take Me Alive
I tried and tried to walk away
To be the bigger man and leave
You made it hard for me
For me
It's been a long and lonely road
I didn't know which way to go
You made my blood run cold
And filled me up with sorrow
There's nowhere for me to go
I'm a long way away from home
I won't go without a fight
You'll never take me alive
You'll never take me alive
No no, you won't ever take me alive
No no, you won't ever take me alive
No no, you won't ever take me alive
No no, you won't
I tried and tried to shed your skin
But you control me from within
Your love has been a sin
I won't forgive tomorrow
There's nowhere for me to go
I'm a long way away from home
I won't go without a fight
You'll never take me alive
You'll never take me alive
No no, you won't ever take me alive
No no, you won't take me alive
No no, you won't take me alive
Oh no, you won't
Ah, ah, ah, ah
Build the fire inside the circle
No retreat today
Build the fire inside the circle
No retreat today
Build the fire inside the circle
No retreat today
Build the fire inside the circle
No retreat today
You'll never take me alive
No no, you won't ever take me alive
No no, you won't take me alive
No no, you won't take me alive
Oh no, you won't
Build the fire inside (ah)
Baby
I used to watch your flowers grow
Now it's raining
And all your petals turn to stone
To be the bigger man and leave
You made it hard for me
For me
It's been a long and lonely road
I didn't know which way to go
You made my blood run cold
And filled me up with sorrow
There's nowhere for me to go
I'm a long way away from home
I won't go without a fight
You'll never take me alive
You'll never take me alive
No no, you won't ever take me alive
No no, you won't ever take me alive
No no, you won't ever take me alive
No no, you won't
I tried and tried to shed your skin
But you control me from within
Your love has been a sin
I won't forgive tomorrow
There's nowhere for me to go
I'm a long way away from home
I won't go without a fight
You'll never take me alive
You'll never take me alive
No no, you won't ever take me alive
No no, you won't take me alive
No no, you won't take me alive
Oh no, you won't
Ah, ah, ah, ah
Build the fire inside the circle
No retreat today
Build the fire inside the circle
No retreat today
Build the fire inside the circle
No retreat today
Build the fire inside the circle
No retreat today
You'll never take me alive
No no, you won't ever take me alive
No no, you won't take me alive
No no, you won't take me alive
Oh no, you won't
Build the fire inside (ah)
Baby
I used to watch your flowers grow
Now it's raining
And all your petals turn to stone
