Lyrics

[Verse 1]
I'm alive
I'm alive
[Verse 2]
To the existential dread
I let run through my head
The truth is that you hurt for me so long
And here's my celebration song
[Verse 3]
I know that years from now
The final flame runs out
I'll be a grain of sand
Running through a stranger's hand
But right now
[Verse 4]
I'm alive
I'm alive
I'm alive
I lived to see today
I lost so much along the way
And that's fine
'Cause I'm alive
[Verse 5]
I've been so hurt for so long
I've been so hurt for so long
I've been so hurt for so long
I've been so hurt for so long
[Verse 6]
And I'm done
Trying to run
From all the things that make me feel alive
For fear that I might just catch fire
[Verse 7]
'Cause I've earned
A couple days amongst the sun
God knows I've more than paid my dues
For all the months that I didn't want to live through
The sleepless nights, the bloodshot eyes
This blissful pain contextualized
I went to death's door
You let me inside
But for all my want
You couldn't look me in the eyes, I
I've been so hurt for so long
