Alive Inside

You stand on the brink You stand on the precipice And you can't stop looking down You're starting to think And hating the prejudice Even though no ones around

You want to fly But you're stapled to the ground You say "Why can't I just spread my wings?"

And say goodbye? We don't care for the accolades We don't care for the lies Because everything here will surely die

It's ok to feel alive inside Even when you feel alone It's ok to question everything 'Cause everyone eventually Finds their way home

We dance on the ledge We laugh at the heretics We know we have this figured out We push to the edge We push 'til we're sick of it We push beyond every form of doubt

They try to pry They try to make us lose our grip We turn our backs because we know we're better

Than all this shit All they want are the accolades All they want is a prize But we take pity on the pain they hold inside

It's ok to feel alive inside Even when you feel alone It's ok to question everything 'Cause everyone eventually Finds their way home

I don't want, I don't need, I don't care What did you think that I would say? It is a choice that I make every single day It's mine to make the choice to be alive in-

How you like me now? There's no room for extremities There's no time for reprise It only takes a moment to decide

It's ok to feel alive inside Even when you feel alone It's ok to question everything 'Cause everyone eventually Finds their way home

You gotta make a choice And find your way back home We are alive inside
