Still Alive
Portal (Game) Lyrics

This was a triumph
We have achieved our goal

I'm making a note here
I want to remember this moment

Huge success
We accomplished something great

Its hard to overstate
It's difficult to emphasize enough

My satisfaction
I feel content and fulfilled

Amateur science
We may not be professionals, but we are dedicated

We do what we must
We are committed to doing what it takes, no matter what it is

Because we can
We have the ability and means to make things happen

For the good of
We are doing this for the betterment of

All of us except
Everyone benefits except for

The ones who are dead
Those who are no longer with us

But theres no use crying
We shouldn't dwell on past mistakes

Over every mistake
Every little thing we've done wrong

You just keep on trying
We need to persevere and keep attempting

'till you run out of cake
Until all resources have been exhausted

And the science gets done
We complete what we set out to do

And you make a big gun
We create something significant and powerful

For the people who are still alive
For those who remain present and active

I'm not even angry
The situation doesn't even bother me

I'm being so sen-sire right now
I am totally genuine and honest

Even though you broke my heart
Even though you hurt me deeply

And killed me
And completely destroyed me

And tore me to pieces
And ripped me apart

And threw every piece into a pile
And threw all of my broken parts together

As they burned it hurt because
As they were destroyed, it pained me because

I felt so happy for you
I am genuinely glad that you succeeded

Now these points of data
These pieces of information we gathered

Make a beautiful line
When put together, form a stunning picture

And we're out of beta
Our work has been completed and tested

We're releasing on time
Our product will be launched as scheduled

So, and when I got burned
Even when things didn't go well

Think of all the things we learned
We gained knowledge and experience

For the people who are still alive
For those who remain to benefit

Go ahead and leave me
You can abandon me if you want

I think I prefer to stay inside
I would rather stay here and continue working

Maybe go find someone else
Perhaps you can find someone else to assist you

To help you
To aid in your efforts

Maybe Black Mesa
Perhaps try Black Mesa instead

That was a joke
I wasn't serious

Haha, fat chance
It's unlikely to happen

Anyway, this cake is great
But on a happier note, this cake is delicious

Its so delicious and moist
It's both tasty and consistently moist

Look and I'm still talking
I keep talking even when there's work to be done

When there's science to do
Even when there is important work to complete

And I look up there
When I look above

It makes me glad I'm not you
I'm happy that I'm not in your position

Iv got experiments to run
I still have important tests and trials to conduct

There is research to be done
There's so much important work that needs to be completed

On the people who are still alive
For the betterment of those who are still present

And believe me I am still alive
I'm still going strong, in spite of everything

I'm doing science and I'm still alive
I'm advancing our understanding of the world and still here to benefit from it

I feel fantastic and I'm still alive
I'm in great health and still enjoying life

While you're dying I'll be still alive
While you're withering away, I'll keep thriving and succeeding

And when you're dead I will be still alive
Even in death, I will continue to make a difference

Still Alive
I'm still here and will continue to thrive
