Three Days Grace: Get Out Alive Meaning

Get Out Alive Lyrics

No time for goodbye he said
As he faded away
Don't put your life in someone's hands
They're bound to steal it away
Don't hide your mistakes
'Cause they'll find you, burn you
Then he said

If you want to get out alive
Hold on for your...

   I think it's about drug abuse or something
   No time for goodbye he said as he faded away
   Don't put your life in someone's hands
   Their bound to steal it away
   Don't hide your mistakes cause they'll find you, burn you
   Then he said."
   
   That right there seems to me that it could be about drug dealing. Don't put your life in someone's hands their bound to steal it away as in the person is a druggie you are continually buying and dealing drugs and in return that's basically taking your life away..you're fading away..
   
   OR
   
   The guy is fading away as in he no longer wants to be apart of the dealing/drugs and wants to just get away from it all. He's realizing what it's doing to him and just wants to get out..'get out alive'
   
   This is my last time she said as she faded away
   It's hard to imagine but one day you'll end up like me
   Then she said..
   
   To me that means she's overdosed or done drugs for so long and is dying. She's telling the person if you continue doing what you're doing you're going to end up just like me.
   
   If I stay it won't be long till I'm burning on the inside
   If I go I can only hope that I make it to the other side
   
   I think that means he, the person with the drug problems wants to get out but doesn't know if he can. If he stays and continues to do what he does he knows it's going to further mess him up, and if he goes he can only HOPE that he makes it to the other side as in either getting clean, or literally making it because when dealing with drugs you can't really just stop dealing because most of the time the dealers and such will try and kill you. Therefore If you wanna get out alive, oh run for your life makes perfect sense.
