You make me hold my breath
With every single gaze
The way you hate me, break me
Haunt me with my darkest days and
You won't go away
No matter what I say
You leave me broken, hopin'
For a chance to break away but
One day you'll be gone, 'cause
You can bring me down
With every word you say
And you can hate me, break me,
Haunt me with my darkest days but
You can't keep me down
And you will see the day
When all the words you used to hurt me
End up hurting you instead
And now that I know all you said is a lie
I'll just stand taller and stronger inside
I'm Alive
You keep me wide awake
With every step you take
You never wait to tell me
When I've made a huge mistake, and
I will never be
What I was meant to be
I missed my shot, it's too late
No chance, no room left for me but
One day you'll be gone, 'cause
You can bring me down
With every word you say
And you can hate me, break me,
Haunt me with my darkest days but
You can't keep me down
And you will see the day
When all the stones you used to hurt me
End up hitting you instead
And now that I know all you said is a lie
I'll just stand taller and stronger inside
I'm Alive
I'll still hold my breath
With every heartless gaze
You'll find new ways to trick me
Haunt me with my darkest days but
Soon you'll go away
Because of what you say
And every day that passes
You'll just slowly fade away 'til
One day you'll be gone... 'cause
You can bring me down
With every word you say
And you can hate me, break me,
Haunt me with my darkest days but
You can't keep me down
And you will see the day
When all the hate you used to hurt me
Ends up killing you instead
And now that I know all are said is a lie
I'll just stand taller and stronger inside, and
All of these years I let you hold me back
But never again because
I'm Alive
