Still Alive

You said that you were sorry, asked to hold me one last time Numb as you touched me, you fell to your knees and cried And you said your apology but all I heard was suicide The worst part of leaving was being scared you’d die Wading through the ashes, couldn’t see to wipe my eyes As hard as the past is, it’s harder on the other side Remembering that knotted belt and how you said the fault was mine Cause you told me that if I ever left you’d die Yeah, you told me that if I ever left you’d die Well look at you, still alive It’s strange how people like to talk and like to take their sides But anyone who knows the truth will read between your lies And you can scream loud as you want and maybe change some minds But you can’t touch me anymore, that well’s run dry Some mornings I would bow my head till day faded to night Mornings I was so unsure, couldn’t bring myself to try But I fought alone through every storm, I didn’t cling to someone’s side Yeah, I can make it on my own, thank god I tried Yeah, I can make it on my own, thank god I tried Yeah, look at me, still alive A story’s just a story, and now it’s yours against mine But I won’t tell mine on the street, I wouldn’t waste my time There hasn’t been a single day that luck’s not on my mind Lucky to be free of you, lucky to be alive Cause you said that you were sorry, asked to hold me one last time I was numb as you touched me, you fell to your knees and cried And you said your apology but all I heard was suicide Cause you told me that if I ever left you’d die Yeah, you told me that if I ever left you’d die Well look at you, still alive
