I Lived

The mirror's reflection's not so kind
And I don't wanna see
Can't really make you understand
What it's like to be me
The questions race inside my mind
The fleeting thoughts forgetful mind
I lost the key. I'm trapped inside
I kick and scream open my eyes

Can you say that you're not afraid of the terrors in your dreams that wake you
Do you feel the peace through noise and grief and waging wars around you
Through dread and procrastination
Move along the conversation
If this is all that there is
I wanna know that I lived

Have I ever been somewhere that's local to me
Have I ever felt at home along these familiar streets
Been up and down these rundown blocks
Retracing steps I thought I'd lost
I catch my feet in front of me
I'm finally floating in the deep of the sea

Can you say that you're not afraid of the terrors in your dreams that wake you
Do you feel the peace through noise and grief and waging wars around you
Through dread and procrastination
Move along the conversation
If this is all that there is
I wanna know that I lived

Know that I lived
Let's go

Don't take away this feeling that I get
These things I can't resist
These things I'd always miss
I'd die
At least a thousand times
Without you by my side
I want you by my side
And I'll be never afraid of the terrors in dreams
If I have you here tonight
