I tried and tried to walk away
To be the bigger man and leave
You made it hard for me, for me
Its been a long lonely road
I didn't know which way to go
You made my blood run cold
And filled me up with sorrow

There's no where for me to go
I'm a long way away from home
I wont go without a fight
You'll never take me alive

You'll never take me alive oh no you wont
Ever take me alive oh no you wont
Take me alive oh no you wont
Ever take me alive oh no you wont

I tried and tried to shed your skin
But you've controlled me from within
Your love has been a sin
I wont forget tomorrow

There's no where for me to go
I'm a long way away from home
I wont go without a fight
You'll never take me alive

In the fire inside the circle
lonely treats today

You'll never take me alive oh no you wont
(in the fire inside the circle)
Ever take me alive oh no you wont
(lonely treats today)
Take me alive oh no you wont
(in the fire inside the circle)
Ever take me alive oh no you wont
(lonely treats today)

In the fire inside
