Still Alive -

A tired soul

I’m feeling down

Aware that I’m still around.

I’ve always known

I‘ve always felt

I cherish what people don’t.

I’m walking out

To clear my thoughts

To feel that I’m still alive.

It presses down

It hurts so bad

Drowning me

These days I’ve been failing life.

I found a note

Mysterious words

It read: 'are you still alive?'.

A message came

Encrypted map

They must know I’m still alive.

But I feel down

I feel lost

I know I’ve strayed

I feel like a wasted life.

From every thought

From every flaw

Aware that I’m still alive

I wake at dusk

I walk till dawn

I’ll sing while I’m still alive.

And in the dark

The saddened eyes

The pain the fear

This world is no place to smile.

They swallow lies

Obedient mobs

We left the world in their hands.

But a secret group

Is planning now

The escape that’ll save our kind.

I think they are

Beyond those hills

Below that star

If the guide that I hold is right.

I need to know

Where you are

Where you’ll go

You thought I deserved to go.

You’re in the sky

Propelled by fire

Until no force can drag you down.

Life here dies

You’ll leave this sun and find a star

You’ll build a world dreamed in your hearts.

Far from here

Above the pain you fly so high

You can’t deny that I’m alive.

Left down here

You don’t need love to survive

You can’t deny I was a child.

Once loved, free

You’re in the sky, I had my chance

You can’t deny that I’m alive.

You left us here and that’s just fine

Build a new world with your hearts.
