Alive Lyrics
You could have left me on a Friday
Would have loved to had least had the weekend
To go under and
To stay under
To get better
To stay better
But you had to pick a Monday
Now I gotta go to work
And get through five days
And get through it
And if I cant do it
And no, I cant do it
[Chorus]
There's a heartbreaking chill running t
Through my bones
I got my clothes but I can't really feel them on
Oh no
Whatever I do
I'm naked
I'm naked
Without you
Can't go out, can't go home, can't go anywhere
Covered up but I'm still watching people stare
Oh no
Now what can I do
I'm naked
I'm naked
Without you
Tryin' focus to go un-noticed
But the harder I try I see them looking
And I can't do it no
They see through it yeah
They see through it
[Chorus]
Inside out
Still hiding
Outside I'm just too exposed
I know that I should let go
Ohh, that I miss you
[Chorus]
Now what can I do
I'm naked
I'm naked
Without you
Would have loved to had least had the weekend
To go under and
To stay under
To get better
To stay better
Now I gotta go to work
And get through five days
And get through it
And if I cant do it
And no, I cant do it
There's a heartbreaking chill running t
Through my bones
I got my clothes but I can't really feel them on
Oh no
Whatever I do
I'm naked
I'm naked
Without you
Covered up but I'm still watching people stare
Oh no
Now what can I do
I'm naked
I'm naked
Without you
But the harder I try I see them looking
And I can't do it no
They see through it yeah
They see through it
Still hiding
Outside I'm just too exposed
I know that I should let go
I'm naked
I'm naked
Without you

Wrong song! The lyrics above are from the song "Naked" not Alive. Love Leona nonetheless <3

Just heard this song on the season premiere of "The Hills". Liked the snippet, so had to hear the full version, which is just amazing! Another hit for Leona Lewis!
Also I think the line is "Where do I turn when we were so close" It means that she used to turn to him for comfort, but now that it's over she has no one to turn to.
Self Explanatory...
Where do we go when were so alone, Where do we go when we were so close? ------> After a break-up, you still have feelings for that person, and can't begin to understand what to do or where to go, because everything you are and were was with them. They completed you, they were your soulmate, and now that their gone into the arms of someone else, you have to let go, but can't understand as to why, because you told them anything and everything, and you can't live without them and don't know where to go or who to turn to
We try not to crash, but we still collide, Tears I've cried, I'm alive, I'll survive ---> Letting go, but hurting after everything you went through with that one person. You can't stand to talk to them, but at the same time, you want and need to talk to them, but it hurts. That is what it means by "we try not to crash, but we still collide" and the end is self explanatory. Tears the person has cried, to get over the hurt, and the pain of letting go, but then saying you'll survive, your alive, meaning that its not the end of the world that its over, and if you love someone enough, you have to let go, and if they truly loved you they will come back
I think this is about missing your lover. It isn't necessarily about being cheated on and breaking up like your typical post-breakup song, but the lover could have just moved far away or even died.
