Forever
Breaking Benjamin Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
And no, I can never beat you
And I find that I can never find you
Never mind I will not forget you
Can I stay alive forever?
Can I stay alive forever?
Can I stay alive forever?
Can you feel a chemical reaction
Cause I feel a hideous attraction
Could we share a poisoned apple?
Can it be manacle and awful?
Can I stay alive forever?
Can I stay alive forever?
Can I stay alive forever?
Forever?
Forever?
Stay alive forever?
Forever?
Stay alive forever?
Stay alive forever?
Stay alive forever?
Stay alive forever?
Stay alive forever?
