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 (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 wanna 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!
