Alive
You don't recognize the path you've defined
You tore your heart apart to get lost on the road you paved
And then walk away
I dig deep for an answer
Scratching the surface of my skin
It's like a maddening itch
Pulling me under and drawing me in
You say you need peace of mind
It's burning through your chest and you're begging for compromise
You need to take a step back and fall in line
To see this in a better light
Alive
Are you awake and breathing
Or am I chasing a ghost?
Fade like the flame of a fleeting beacon
You turn your back when I need you the most
And I have tried to justify the pain inside
Hiding behind the lines I write
Throwing the fight lying awake at night
I am losing control of my life
You say you need peace of mind
It's burning through your chest and you're begging for compromise
You need to take a step back and fall in line
To see this in a better light
You say all you need is time,
I can't believe all the times I have fooled myself with the same lie
In the name of feeling alive
We must live with the choices we make
And in the end they define us
It's not about the hits that we take
You say you need peace of mind
It's burning through your chest and you're begging for compromise
You need to take a step back and fall in line
To see this in a better light
You say all you need is time,
I can't believe all the times I have fooled myself with the same lie
In the name of feeling alive
You tore your heart apart to get lost on the road you paved
And then walk away
I dig deep for an answer
Scratching the surface of my skin
It's like a maddening itch
Pulling me under and drawing me in
You say you need peace of mind
It's burning through your chest and you're begging for compromise
You need to take a step back and fall in line
To see this in a better light
Alive
Are you awake and breathing
Or am I chasing a ghost?
Fade like the flame of a fleeting beacon
You turn your back when I need you the most
And I have tried to justify the pain inside
Hiding behind the lines I write
Throwing the fight lying awake at night
I am losing control of my life
You say you need peace of mind
It's burning through your chest and you're begging for compromise
You need to take a step back and fall in line
To see this in a better light
You say all you need is time,
I can't believe all the times I have fooled myself with the same lie
In the name of feeling alive
We must live with the choices we make
And in the end they define us
It's not about the hits that we take
You say you need peace of mind
It's burning through your chest and you're begging for compromise
You need to take a step back and fall in line
To see this in a better light
You say all you need is time,
I can't believe all the times I have fooled myself with the same lie
In the name of feeling alive
