Out Alive

(album: Southall - 2023)

I've been thinking on the old days and on the man I've come to be
Living down a past life ain't as easy as it seems
Towns worth leaving and hearts worth breaking
Well-intended but not well-taken
Happy endings are hard to come by
If you don't learn how to let things die

Every corner I seem to turn
Is another hard lesson learned
I'm down in the trenches trying to tunnel through the fight
Out of sight
Out of mind
Out alive

The names of old sad tunes keep ringing in my ear
Did anybody ask you which songs you wanted to hear?
Blood starts pumping and hands start shaking
Overthinking moves worth making
And I've got less than what you're taking
But plenty more to give

Every corner I seem to turn
Is another hard lesson learned
I'm down in the trenches trying to tunnel through the fight
Out of sight
Out of mind
Out alive

Every corner I seem to turn
Is another hard lesson learned
I'm down in the trenches trying to tunnel through the fight
Out of sight
Out of mind
Out alive

Out of sight
Out of mind
Out alive
