I’d Rather Be Living

Lyrics

[Verse 1] I'm done sleepwalking with a blank stare I'm waking up from this nightmare I'm done hanging on to the tightrope Wanna look down and I feel scared Got skeletons locked in the closet And monsters underneath my bed Fear is the worst kind of liar You can't believe a word he says [Pre-Chorus 1] Everybody's gonna feel it sometimes But if you let it in it'll kill you But what a waste of life [Chorus] I'd rather be living Got a million reasons why I'd rather be living You can't say I never tried I might hit a brick wall, end up in a freefall I'm rolling the dice, might lose it all But I'd rather be living, oh-oh Oh-oh [Verse 2] I'm done giving up at the saddle Yeah, I'm back in the battle Yeah I'm done running from my own shadow 'Cause it's only a shadow [Pre-Chorus 2] Even when I'm barely breathing, it's alright I'm a comeback kind of fighter 'Till the day I die [Chorus] I'd rather be living Got a million reasons why I'd rather be living You can't say I never tried I might hit a brick wall, end up in a freefall I'm rolling the dice, might lose it all But I'd rather be living, oh-oh Oh-oh [Bridge] If it don't take your breath away If it don't make your heartbeat race Then you don't know what it feels like to be alive If it don't leave you screaming "wait" And make you wanna pump the brakes Then you don't know what it feels like to be alive [Chorus] I'd rather be living Got a million reasons why I'd rather be living You can't say I never tried I might hit a brick wall, end up in a freefall I'm rolling the dice, might lose it all But I'd rather be living, oh-oh Oh-oh [Outro] If it don't take your breath away If it don't make your heartbeat race Then you don't know what it feels like to be alive If it don't leave you screaming "wait" And make you wanna pump the brakes Then you don't know what it feels like Then you don't know what it feels like
