• 9 Lives

i won't break my own legs just to walk with crutches
i may stand alone but i stand as myself
no matter how we obscure it
truth awaits us
you can't dodge the real shit
what do we have if not control of our minds?

look to a flask to mask what you've become
ski the slopes until you're good and numb
mistake cowaring together for bonding and pleasure
vices deceive those who wish to believe
it's time to face the lie
you can try to justify with a sob story about your hard knock life
but i used to think this world had broken me
hiding, ashamed, i suffered self inflicted injuries
we masked the pain and the joy the same
we thought we'd drink away our poverty
but when the sun rose our pockets were still empty

me and all my friends were lost
those times alone with no money, no family, no home, and no hope
we'll kill ourselves real slow!
we're all so gone we won't even notice when we go!

someone once said to me
"you're better than the life you lead"
i made a choice that very night
and it's the reason i'm still alive
i see my old friends sometimes,
strung out and 25
some died
time slipping by
doing time
relapsed and he's breaking down
envious that i got out

i got out

if this is growing up
then i'll stay a kid forever
i'll be the kid that survived
while you prove your maturity
by avoiding your life
i am the one who survived
you can mock my straight edge pride
but i am the one who survived
