Do you recall a time when I
Said that I would never try this?
I'm awake and I'm alive,

You're wasting your time,
The weight is off of me


I know it's hard to understand,
And I know you think you're losing me all over again


I'm alive and I'll survive
I'm alive because you gave me life


I know your heart beats to see me,
I know you can't sleep because of me,
I'd like to give you peace of mind


'Cause I know that you're listening
And I know you $#&@ed up everything,

But I don't need your love, no

I'm alive and I'll survive

I'm alive because you gave me life

So when you're lying in your bed

And thoughts of me race through your head
Just know


That I'm alive and I'll survive
I'm alive because you gave me life
