Meant For This - Alive Like Me

I’ve been away fighting hard to stay alive

And I don’t know when I’ll be coming home

(When I’ll be coming home)

Day after day never ending sleepless nights

Waking up to replay them in my mind

(Replay them in my mind)

I’ll never let this go

And it might kill me if I try

To pretend that its all behind me

Tell myself that it wasn’t meant to be

The only thing I hope

Is that I make it through the night

So the words that I’ve kept inside me

Will get a chance to see the light

I’ve been away fighting hard to stay alive

And I don’t know when I’ll be coming home

(When I’ll be coming home)

Day after day never ending sleepless nights

Waking up to replay them in my mind

(Replay them in my mind)

Whoa, whoa

What was I running from?

I’m meant for this

Were meant for this

Whoa, whoa

What was I hiding from?

It’s hard to see behind the sun

But like the stars in the sky

The answers everywhere

You just won’t see it until

The night is growing near

So I’ll wait up and watch the light

Disappear into the night

I’ll know the battle was won

Once I see the stars burn bright

I’ve been away fighting hard to stay alive

And I don’t know when I’ll be coming home

(When I’ll be coming home)

Day after day never ending sleepless nights

Waking up to replay them in my mind

(Replay them in my mind)

My only prayer is that this ship that we built ourselves

Doesn’t get taken by the waves

And have its pieces sent to hell

My only prayer is that this ship that we built ourselves

Doesn’t get taken by the waves

And have its pieces sent to hell

I’ve been away fighting hard to stay alive

And I don’t know when I’ll be coming home
