Alive Again
It's getting harder to breathe.
And I thought for sure I could handle it.
I'm not as strong as I seem.
I need something to hold on to.
Get your lies out of here.
I don't need you to keep bringing me down.
I've fallen hard too many times.
I need something to keep me grounded.
And I promise you I don't have the answers.
And I don't think that I can stay here.
It was my heart that walked out too long ago.
I'm slowly dying without it.
I'm standing up, holding my ground.
I'm not letting you stand on my chest anymore.
I need to breathe, you're choking me.
It's not fair, it's not fair, it's not fair.
I've lost this war too many times.
To too many teams on opposing sides.
It's about time that I'm found.
Time for me to start living again.
