Reason to Live

How many nights have you waited for someone to care
Thinkin' dyin' is what you deserve?
Like a sad song that no one seems to understand
'Cause some pain is just too much for words

No, I don't know your name, no, I can't see your face
But I've been to that place in the dark
So, in case you just needed to hear someone say
I'm so proud of you for getting this far

So, if you're feeling like dyin', no tears left for cryin'
Alone at the edge of a cliff
If you're so sick of fighting the monsters you're hidin'
And wonderin' if you would be missed
You're not the only one that's feeling like this
If you're hearin' this song, it's a gift
A reason to live

(A reason to live)

How many times have you reached out for anyone's hand
From the depths of your personal hell?
And then counted the ways you could end all your pain
'Cause you're so tired of saving yourself

I'm a stranger at best, but please don't second-guess
All the hope that you hear in my voice
This is not some cliché, promise you if you stay
Someday you'll see that you were well worth that choice

So, if you're feeling like dyin', no tears left for cryin'
Alone at the edge of a cliff
If you're so sick of fighting the monsters you're hidin'
And wonderin' if you would be missed
You're not the only one that's feeling like this
If you're hearin' this song, it's a gift

What a beautiful truth that a human can choose
To become more than just what they feel
'Cause the hell in your head will be nothing compared
To the person that it couldn't kill
