Half Alive

The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.

It's four AM, I'm waking up to your perfume

Don't get up, I'll get through on my own

I don't know if I'm home

Or if I lost the way into your room

I'm spiraling into my doom

I'm feeling half alive but I know one day

You and I will be free,

To live and die by our own rules,

Free..

Despite the fact that men are fools.

I'm almost alive, and I need you to try

And save me.

It's okay that we're dying,

But I need to survive tonight, tonight.

Well excuse me while I get killed softly,

Heart slows down and I can hardly tell you I'm okay

At least 'til yesterday,

You know you got me off my highest guard,

Believe me when I say it's hard.

We'll get through this tonight

And I know one day you and I will be free

To live and die by our own rules,

Free..

Despite the fact that men are fools.

I'm almost alive, and I need you to try

And save me.

It's okay that we're dying,

But I need to survive tonight, tonight.

And you touch my hand ever so slightly

(Girl we're not ready for this yet)

And the deadly look she cast upon me

I won't regret, I won't regret

I won't regret. I won't regret...

And I was trying to disappear,

But you got me wrapped around you

I can hardly breathe without you

I was trying to disappear

But I got lost in your eyes now,

You brought me down to size now.

I'm almost alive

And I need you to try and save me.

It's okay that we're dying

But I need to survive tonight, tonight

Tonight...

I'm almost alive, and I need you to try

And save me.

It's okay that we're dying,

But I need to survive tonight, tonight.

I need to survive tonight, tonight.
