Exist To Outlive

I sit scared looking back at lifeFrom all the damage doneI shouldn't be aliveYou never truly know fearUntil your vision fades and suddenly reappearsThis weight can't hold me downI will keep my feet on the groundA wise man said that you only live one timeSo I'm living each day putting my life on the lineI have so much to be grateful forWhen every person I meet opens a brand new doorOh, this life is a precious giftDon't take it awayDon't take it awayAll of this means nothing without youThrough all of thisYou're my anchor to hold toI'm alive because you believe in meI feel like a blind man who can finally seeWhen life flashed before my eyesIt was you, trying to say goodbyeBut I'm here to stayI couldn't let this go awayAnd I'm sick of not knowing whyI walked away when death was so close byThis life we've made means everything to meMy life is here, there's nowhere I'd rather beI'm here to stayI'm hereA wise man said that you only live one timeSo I'm living each day putting my life on the lineI have so much to be grateful forWhen every person I meet opens a brand new doorOh, this life is a precious giftDon't take it awayDon't take it awayA wise man said that you only live one timeSo I'm living each day putting my life on the lineI have so much to be grateful forWhen every person I meet opens a brand new doorOh, this life is a precious giftDon't take it awayDon't take it awayDon't take it away
