Lyrics

[Verse 1]

Demi leaves rehab again

When is this shit gonna end?

Sounds like the voice in my head

I can't believe I'm not dead

[Verse 2]

I'm alive by the skin of my teeth

I survived, but it got harder to breathe

Asking why doesn't make it easier

Go easier on me

Goddamn it, I just wanna be free

But I can't, 'cause it's a fucking disease

I'm alive by the skin of my

(Ooh-woo-hoo)

(Ooh-woo-hoo)

[Verse 3]

The reaper knocks on my door

'Cause I'm addicted to more

I don't need you to keep score

When I'm the one who's at war

[Verse 4]

I'm alive by the skin of my teeth

I survived, but it got harder to breathe

Asking why doesn't make it easier

Go easier on me

Goddamn it, I just wanna be free

But I can't, 'cause it's a fucking disease

I'm alive by the skin of my

[Verse 5]

I'm just trying to keep my head above water

I'm your son and I'm your daughter

I'm your mother, I'm your father

I'm just a product of the problem

I'm just trying to keep my head above water

I'm your son and I'm your daughter

I'm your mother, I'm your father

I'm alive

[Verse 6]

I'm alive by the skin of my teeth

Won't you try and have some mercy on me?

Asking why doesn't make it easier

Go easier on me

Goddamn it, I just wanna be free

But I can't, 'cause it's a fucking disease

I'm alive by the skin of my

(Ooh-woo-hoo) I

(Ooh-woo-hoo) I'm alive by

(Ooh-woo-hoo) By the skin of my teeth
