Seems life forever,
|
Like forever
|
Since I tore myself apart
|
And left my friends in the wake
|
Of countless tears and fading life.
|
When I couldn't seem to grasp the life I lead
|
And the lives I touch
|
Its one year on now
|
One year on, one year on
|
Still I struggle with the same demons
|
I shed as I laid there lost in my head
|
Lost in my head
|
|
(Lost in this goddamn hospital bed)
|
I'm not the same man
|
And I don't dare try
|
(Try to uncover all the darkness I hide)
|
Its like my demons are my lovers
|
But I've got friends by my side
|
I've got hope in my eyes
|
And dreams to aspire too
|
And the whole wide world to watch below
|
(And death won't be my lover
|
I've got so much left to give
|
And take my life with subtle steps
|
Instead of not wanting all that is left)
|
|
Instead of trying to take my own life
|
Its one year on
|
And I'm stronger, I want to live much longer
|
Not grow old and bitter
|
And not jaded
|
And not hate what life gave me
|
Let the fear wash away
|
Let the demons blunt their claws
|
On a life that's full of mistakes
|
But always searching for much more
|
I won't die defeated
|
I won't die defeated
|
I won't die defeated
|
I won't die
|
|
Cause I've got friends by my side
|
I've got hope in my eyes
|
And dreams to aspire too
|
And the whole wide world to watch below
|
(and death won't be my lover
|
I've got so much left to give
|
And take my life with subtle steps
|
Instead of not wanting all that is left
|
No death won't be my lover
|
I've got so much left to give
|
And take my life with subtle steps
|
Instead of not wanting all that is left)
