New Song

(album: Paper Castles - 2019)

Why did they lie?
They said to survive I had to walk along the line
But I don't feel alive, does that mean I've survived?
Does that mean I've survived?
Does that mean I've survived?
What kind of living is this?
I don't wanna simply exist
I wanna punch with my fist
I wanna roll with the misfits
The ender in the mist
Give in to the bliss
Grab life by her wrist
Lean in for a kiss and say, "I want this"
"Oh, I need this"

I wanna live like I mean it
I'm gonna take it, not leave it
I wanna live like I mean it
I'm gonna take it, not leave it
Oh-oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh-oh-oh

I've never been one for leaving
But I need something to believe in
Something that shakes me
Watch out I'm waking
I'm yours for the taking
I'm newborn, I'm shaking
Never been one for leaving
But now I'm leaving
'Cause my heart's still beating
And there's nothing, it's fleeting
As a life before expiry
Tonight I'm feeling fiery
I'll set fire to everything
Everything that meant something
'Cause now it has no meaning
Now it has no meaning

I wanna live like I mean it
I'm gonna take it, not leave it
I wanna live like I mean it
I'm gonna take it, not leave it
I wanna live like I mean it
I'm gonna take it, not leave it
I wanna live like I mean it
I'm gonna take it, not leave it
