Still Alive lyrics

You've spent too long waiting on a change

But it never came

Did you wait in vain?

I don't know your name

But I know you well

I'm just like you in that I had to fight through every day

Trying to numb the pain

Drink it all away

Smoke another strain

Didn't know myself

I'm not gonna tell you it's okay

Or to not complain

Or that it's a phase

But you're not insane

Even when your back's up against a wall

Even when you're down, and almost out

When it looks the worst and getting worse

Still alive

You can always try

Even when your back's up against a wall

Even when your light is burning out

When it looks the worst and getting worse

Still alive

You can always try

I know that it's hard so don't get me wrong

I don't want my words

To be misheard

Or to make it worse

But I've been around

We have all got our own heavy cross to bear

It's a metaphor

Like I said before

I can look at yours

'Cause I've been around

I'm not gonna tell you it's okay

Or to not complain

Or that it's a phase

But you're not insane

Even when your back's up against a wall

Even when you're down, and almost out

When it looks the worst and getting worse

Still alive

You can always try

Even when your back's up against a wall

Even when your light is burning out

When it looks the worst and getting worse

Still alive

You can always try

I've been knocked down so many times

I've been all blue, many times

I've been knocked down so many times

So many times, so many times

I've been knocked down so many times

I've been knocked down so many times

I've been knocked down so many times

So many times, so many times

I've been knocked down so many times

I've been knocked down so many times

I've been knocked down so many times

So many times, so many times
