Alive

Find me a lover, find me a friend
Let me taste something sweet at the bitter end
Tell me I'm perfect, let me pretend
'Cause I've spent too many years living up to perfect's long demands
Everybody hopes their trend survives
Like the screamo kids in 2005
Everybody says that I have seen my time
But I'll keep singing louder on the mic, so I can feel alive
Show me a sign, a light above the land
And I'll stop searching for a better plan
Give me a job, a real good one if you can
'Cause we all feel entitled and put our faith in other's hands
Everybody pays a little price
So the crazy doesn't keep you up at night
Put a dollar in my pocket and I'll make you feel alright
The greatest things in life don't always happen twice
Alive
Standing on the edge, looking down at all the people
I wonder if they share the air I breathe?
And I might be scared of a sudden bolt of lightning
But I live to kill that fear in me
It's mine and mine alone, the demons in my bones
I don't need a King to make me weak
I'll always be alive until the day I die
So on the day I die I'll die in peace
I'll always be alive until the day I die
So on the day I die I'll die in peace
I'll always be alive until the day I die
So on the day I die I'll die in peace
Everybody winds around the bend
To see the bigger picture staring back at them
The wrongs that we commit we can't admit so we pretend
Let's never let the bad ones be the end, so we can feel alive
