Surviving

(album: Andrew Ripp - 2015)

Feels like my heart is only halfway beating
I'm barely breathing in, breathing out
If this is just a feeling
I can't shake it
This house of cards I built is going to cave in
I don't have the strength or what it takes to say this

Every moment without you is me just surviving
Treading water
My arms are tired
I need you
I need you to throw me a line
I need reviving
I've been kicking, screaming, and fighting
And I wanna be alive
Every moment without you is me just surviving

All alone
I'm in a no win situation
You are the only one who can save me now
So I'm begging for a chance at a new beginning
One more shot at what I've been missing
Don't want to go another day without you near me

Every moment without you is me just surviving
Treading water
My arms are tired
I need you
I need you to throw me a line
I need reviving
I've been kicking, screaming, and fighting
And I wanna be alive, yeah
Every moment without you is me just surviving

I'm nothing but a sinking stone on my own
I'm never gonna let you go, now that I know
Every moment without you is me just surviving

Every moment without you is me just surviving
Treading water
My arms are tired
I need you
I need you to throw me a line
I need reviving
I've been kicking, screaming, and fighting
And I wanna be alive, yeah
Every moment without you is me just surviving
