Stay Alive

from Cotard by Mountains To Move

/

lyrics

It’s six a.m. I’m all alone, in the rain, waiting for something to put me out of my misery.
I whisper softly, yet convinced of what I say: “I hate myself more than you could ever know”.

Have you ever had one of those days when you simply don’t feel like living? Welcome to my world on a daily basis. I need a shoulder to lay my head on, I need a heart that could make an attempt to lighten a once burning fire inside my chest.

I merely exist to stay alive.

I simply don’t feel like living for the rest of my life. I’ll just be present, though I will be vacant. I won’t open up to anyone or anything, because what would be the fucking point of that?
Pouring you heart out, tearing the flesh and the skin from your bones, wandering the depths of your mind to find your soul and after all realising that you’ve always been alone.

But I am fine with all of this. I never believed another person had the ability to solve someone else’s problems and be there until the end. I will drink to that and give a toast about how the beauty of life will give us reason to live, but I will always keep one thought in the back on my mind: “I merely exist to stay alive.”

I merely exist to stay alive, but I don’t want to feel like this forever.
