Collision.Survive

(album: What It Means To Be Defeated - 2013)

One single mistake has resulted in my body breaking through the windshield
My eyes are open, and it feels like the first time I've ever seen the earth for what it could it be
No promise to wake in the morning, how many seconds have I wasted and thrown away?
Every minute is a chance to be the person that you want to believe exists inside of the mess you've created

Because I think I need you to understand
This collision survived was my second chance
Awaking to this hospital bed, I exhale with closing eyes and thank god I'm alive

Crimson blood stains my hands
Don't know who's alive or dead
I remember the worst from the night
From the scar that was ripped into my, face
I swear on my life, I'll never forget this night

I see ambulance lights flash and sing
A song far too honest with me
God, hear my voice one more time
I'm the broken bone, that needs to mend and become whole
Hear my voice one more time

Never again, never again, will I sleep in the ground
My hands are extending, so reach in and pull me out

I inhale with brand new lungs, surviving this collision
