lyrics

Enter sleep awakening to the fact that I'm alive
It's similar to when we birth and right before we die
It's completely fine because this shard of time
Is damn precious though it's borrowed it is treasured so it's mine
I will slip along the way on down this path to which will end up at a grave
Whatever lies ahead will remain hidden love lessons learned
We walk the razors edge life's a close shave

So take it all on give it what you've got
I know you may feel worthless weak with no purpose
But the fact you're alive really says a lot
We all slip up every now and again
Go through habits and hobbies lose family and friends
Just remember life is practice and go and give it your best shot

Four o'clock insomnia thinking of things I want to change
With haunting distant memories I think I am deranged
So I claw through the darkness I claw through my soul
Finding demons in the depths and they've lost all control
And I have have tripped along the way
This life is fucking crazy I don't know what else to say
But I will push through decay cuz this life is just a close shave

So take it all on give it what you've got
I know you may feel worthless weak with no purpose
But the fact you're alive really says a lot
We all slip up every now and again
Go through habits and hobbies lose family and friends
Just remember life is practice and go and give it your best shot

Dream with both eyes open or at least 'til I'm awake
To see the non-existent dangers that put my life at stake
I refuse to see the only danger's me
Not to myself but other people that's why I love my company
We slip up and we still succeed
We do things to help out others and even out of greed
It's along this path that we all ride
Doesn't matter what's in the middle
In the end we all die
Whether or not we sit and watch the show we're off to leave

So take it all on give it what you've got
I know you may feel worthless weak with no purpose
But the fact you're alive really says a lot
We all slip up every now and again
Go through habits and hobbies lose family and friends
Just remember life is practice and go and give it your best shot

Why do we take this life so god damn serious?
Making mountains out of molehills I think we're delirious
Because we trap ourselves inside all of these false realities
But if you open your eyes then you will start to see
That this life is what you make of it
And it really doesn't matter once you start to admit
That you can do anything, so why not dance around and sing?

And take it all on give it what you've got
I know you may feel worthless weak with no purpose
But the fact you're alive really says a lot
We all slip up every now and again
Go through habits and hobbies lose family and friends
Just remember life is practice and go and give it your best shot
