Every Second Lyrics

I'm broken, I'm hoping
For a reason to keep on going
Doors open and closing
Everything seems like slow motion
I've chosen this moment
To stop my self-erosion
I'm focused on owning
Myself, my own opponent

But in this moment that is falling apart
I keep thinking
Is the path I chose where I should start?
I keep sinking

I'm dying every second I'm alive
Every second I'm alive
I'm trying to feed the fire that inside me
The fire that's inside
I'm dying every second I'm alive
This life's reflection in my eye
It reminds me the scars made me stronger

I won't go quietly
Won't let the past unwind me
I don't know whom I see
Worth trying to put behind me

But in this moment that is falling apart
I keep thinking
Is the path I chose where I should start?
I keep sinking

I'm dying every second I'm alive
Every second I'm alive
I'm trying to feed the fire that inside me
The fire that's inside
I'm dying every second I'm alive
This life's reflection in my eye
It reminds me the scars made me stronger

Every second I'm alive
I'm getting closer to my grave
I try my best to just survive
Feels like I'm broken every day
I'm hoping that I'll make it
I'm hoping but I'm flaky
I'm cold inside this basement
Time to try and fight the shaky
I'm shaking and I'm waiting
Still debating on which way to go
Swaying and I'm fading
No escaping, still afraid to know
Inside my thoughts are erasing
So I'm bracing for a weighted stone
The world is so much colder
So I may just have to change alone

I'm dying every second I'm alive
Every second I'm alive
I'm trying to feed the fire that inside me
The fire that's inside
I'm dying every second I'm alive
This life's reflection in my eye
It reminds me the scars made me stronger
