This is what fighting for survival means
We were stronger together when we were a team
But now you've gone to fight your own demons alone
And now I'm In a coma, my broken bones
Are not healing as quickly as they used to
I guess when [leave quickly?]
Took my strength with you
So now I stick to shadows
To cover the bruise on my heart
'Till we're physically millions of miles apart
Dressed to the nines just to feel like a 10
But I'm fine, fine, fine
Oh, but I'm lucky that I'm still alive
This is what fighting for survival means
When you die in your sleep and you wake up screaming
As you have to hold yourself and shake 'till you sink
It's a bitter reminder there are no safe places
When your head is constantly trying to fight you
And the demons that hurt you are the demons inside you
So you put on some make up and take to the street
They're going to take you, you'll go out screaming
Dressed to the nines just to feel like a 10
But I'm fine, fine, fine
Oh god, I'm lucky that I'm still alive
You won't ever give up on me, really
When this is you, I thank you for how you have changed me
We'll all go a little bit crazy
Dressed to the nines just to feel like a 10
But I'm fine, fine, fine
Oh god, I'm lucky that I'm still alive
I'm still alive
Oh god, I'm lucky that I'm still alive
