Something of Substance
I hate waking up in the morning
to look at my phone and see that the time's not changed
I can't keep on sleeping like this
I'm sinking into the sofa like a rock
Thrown into the ocean I'd rather be swimming than drowning
I'd rather be breathing than eating dirt
If you're not alive
If you're not alive
You're dead
You're dead
Easier said than done
Give me something of substance
A meal that I can really sink my teeth into
And tear it apart limb by limb
Give me something worth loving
A song or a book or a movie or someone
That will change me for the better
Change my life from within
If you're not alive
If you're not alive
You're dead
You're dead
Easier said than done
Look the sun is rising again
Orange, red and pink
Sure you saw it yesterday
And it may look the same
But are you
Are you
You're alive
You're alive
Not dead
Not dead
You should be proud
to look at my phone and see that the time's not changed
I can't keep on sleeping like this
I'm sinking into the sofa like a rock
Thrown into the ocean I'd rather be swimming than drowning
I'd rather be breathing than eating dirt
If you're not alive
If you're not alive
You're dead
You're dead
Easier said than done
Give me something of substance
A meal that I can really sink my teeth into
And tear it apart limb by limb
Give me something worth loving
A song or a book or a movie or someone
That will change me for the better
Change my life from within
If you're not alive
If you're not alive
You're dead
You're dead
Easier said than done
Look the sun is rising again
Orange, red and pink
Sure you saw it yesterday
And it may look the same
But are you
Are you
You're alive
You're alive
Not dead
Not dead
You should be proud
