Emensia - STAY/ALIVE

To Rate
★ Verse 1 ★
I’ve been finding out the hard way
That there’s nothing in this life
That should make me sacrifice who I am
It’s been a long road across the surface
And I’ve been trying to find my purpose
And after searching all this time
I think I’ve come to realize

★ Chorus 1 ★
That I should stay
A mile away
From all the hurtful things in life
That made it harder to survive
And I should stay
So far away
From the version of myself that wasted time
I’ll never get back

★ Verse 2 ★
I wasted so much time
I just want it back
Now that I realize
The way I should have been
But I wasted so much time
I’ll nevеr get back
Can’t blame me for rеacting this way
But I need this change
★ Bridge ★
If there’s a god up in the sky
Please let me live before I die
If there’s a higher being watching over me
Please let me feel that I’m alive

★ Chorus 2 ★
Stay
So close to me
All the little things in life
That made it easier to survive
And I will stay
With my beliefs
That if I try to live a little at a time
One day I’ll feel alive
I want to feel alive

★ Outro ★
Please let me live before I die
