lyrics

I’ve had my share of falling out,
Disappointed my presence to understanding
I take responsibility now,

In a choice, that was made for me
Giving thanks, lasting too laaaaaate
Is what marks this
old intention?

Disrupt the flow, and use three words
You were the pressure I so need
At last the moments gone
And I think back to when you left me

Resituate the point,
when you decide
I deserved a second chance
They couldn’t take my answers
But you read me like an idea
Not distaste but actual feeling
The love is there, even when you’re gone

The love is there, even when you’re gone

I was my darkest fortress,
And the addiction lacked the courage,
The false attempts at living,
The brave recoil of tension

Cast out from all I knew,
Adopted by the best of us
The best of life, truth in notion
As I carry on

I pray these simple words and notes
Will rise to your position
You’ll hear them with your heartbeat
And know

It’s easy, I breathe
I dream
I’m alive
Because of you

Believing life is made of choices,
I was deaths first pick,
But you won the coin toss
With strength behind your smile

Leaning towards love
It’s just a word
But the result
is still the same
I’m still the same

I pray these simple words and notes
Will rise to your position
You’ll hear them with your heartbeat
And know

It’s easy, I breathe
I dream
I’m alive
Because of you

I’m alive because of you

Farewell
