I Look Alive

There’s things you learn

There’s things you know

But the hardest things to understand

Prove easiest to show

I look alive

But I feel like shit

Ignore the aching in my bones

And focus on this cigarette

I look alive

I look alive

I’ll cough it up

Until I choke

Conversations with a stranger

And forget the words I spoke

My talk is cheap

Hung by a thread

Got your face, perfume and number

Tattooed inside my head

I look alive

I look alive

I look alive

I look alive

All I wanna do is feel alright

I don’t wanna be alone tonight

All I wanna do is

All I wanna do is

All I wanna do is get it right

Am I gonna be alone tonight?

All I wanna do is

I don’t want to do this

There’s things you know

There’s things you say

I change your mind

You change my ways

You lose your cool

It’s just in time

You lose your voice

And I lose mine

There’s things you learn

Things you know

How could I explain the difference?

Does it hurt

Letting go?

How come I could never understand

Something that I’ve never been?

Understand

Something that I’ve never been

Hey!
