Live Another Day - Live
They say to live another day
A sentiment reflected mindlessly
But then they look the other way
When I don't present predictably
They roll their eyes internally
Put on a face that's meant for comforting
But rote displays of sympathy
Come across as weak and bumbling
And I just wanna forget
Your condescension
I hope the sun will set
On your misapprehension
In the darkest parts of me
I half believe the heated words that speak
Of deep despair and withering
They slice apart my heart with sharp critique
While their discordant melodies
Reverberating through the murky deep
Bring me down unto my knees
I hold onto a promise desperately
My soul is full of regret
For the contention
I don't deserve respect
Or deep connection
All my life I've felt restrained like I'm fighting against myself
I've never known another way
One day I'll know that I'm okay and I'll finally love myself
The spark inside will have its' say
In this ordinary way
I'll find the strength inside in spite of me
Manipulate and shape the clay
Stoke the fire burning low in me
Because it's up to me to save
Myself from hell and freezing into place
And it can't be another way
That's the price to pay for saving grace
And I will walk this path
In dedication
Until I grasp the hand
Of my salvation
A sentiment reflected mindlessly
But then they look the other way
When I don't present predictably
They roll their eyes internally
Put on a face that's meant for comforting
But rote displays of sympathy
Come across as weak and bumbling
And I just wanna forget
Your condescension
I hope the sun will set
On your misapprehension
In the darkest parts of me
I half believe the heated words that speak
Of deep despair and withering
They slice apart my heart with sharp critique
While their discordant melodies
Reverberating through the murky deep
Bring me down unto my knees
I hold onto a promise desperately
My soul is full of regret
For the contention
I don't deserve respect
Or deep connection
All my life I've felt restrained like I'm fighting against myself
I've never known another way
One day I'll know that I'm okay and I'll finally love myself
The spark inside will have its' say
In this ordinary way
I'll find the strength inside in spite of me
Manipulate and shape the clay
Stoke the fire burning low in me
Because it's up to me to save
Myself from hell and freezing into place
And it can't be another way
That's the price to pay for saving grace
And I will walk this path
In dedication
Until I grasp the hand
Of my salvation
