Alive Enough

There's not a single breath I'll waste for the rest of my days
Every moment that we have we're given
I've already crossed over twice and found my way back
I know that I was meant for somethin'

You ask me why I try
And then I tell you

Focus your eyes to the sky
'Cause the light is free
Yet we take it for granted enough
Don't you be afraid to die
If you haven't ever really lived
Tell me - are you alive enough?

So many count down the days waiting for endings
I will not suffocate on sorrow
I've been dragged down to the depths of hell and returned
I'll always walk toward tomorrow

You ask me softly why
And then I tell you

Focus your eyes to the sky
'Cause the light is free
Yet we take it for granted enough
Don't you be afraid to die
If you haven't ever really lived
Tell me - are you alive enough?

I see the good in you
The scars are beautiful
Long gone pain becomes quintessence
I feel your emptiness
So much room inside to live
I will try to help you remember to

Focus your eyes all around
To the ground beneath your feet
We take for granted enough
Everything around us is alive
Why are we so eager to die
When none of us are alive enough?
