Need you more than ever, but I panic when I let you close

I run in circles with the demons that I hate the most

I don't know where I'll go when I'm six feet below

Cash out on my halo, now I'm back again

Wanna quit tryna fit in a tight mold

Over it, won't admit I'm at a new low

I've been sick of faking progress

Lost track of my motive lately

So who the hell am I without this vicious cycle?

Bastard by design, fixated on survival

How do you live when you don't wanna die?

When the colors all fade, when you're empty inside

There's no drugs I can take, Heaven knows that I've tried

So I'll stay, I'll stay, I'll stay for the ride

I-I-I-I-I-I-I, I'll stay alive

I-I-I-I-I-I-I, I'll stay alive

Tell me it gets better, but you're full of shit

You only learn a few tricks and you live with it

You only pick a few friends and you settle in

This is it, couple kids, alarms, and Ritalin

Smile, the world got set on fire

We're living in denial

So who the hell am I?

Who the hell am I?

How do you live when you don't wanna die?

When the colors all fade, when you're empty inside

There's no drugs I can take, Heaven knows that I've tried

So I'll stay, I'll stay, I'll stay for the ride

I-I-I-I-I-I-I, I'll stay alive

I-I-I-I-I-I-I, I'll stay alive

I can't stay holding on for long

I need you here to help me out

When it all gets quiet and the drugs run out

I'm sick of building up a wall

I need you here to tear it down

When it all gets quiet and my thoughts get loud

I-I-I-I-I-I-I, I'll stay alive

I-I-I-I-I-I-I, I'll stay alive
