I Lived Lyrics

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
