about

Alright so, the first track on this EP is a cry from the kid whose told their whole life that they're not good enough for, whoever. They don't meet expectations and they always disappoint people who they desperately try to impress. However, just because some people look down on them for not meeting their standards, they still hold a lot of great qualities and will be worth something to someone, somewhere. Coming down the moral that it doesn't necessarily matter what others think of you, as long as you are happy with what you are.

lyrics

Walked by a graveyard to collect my thoughts
Maybe I'll be lying in the ground soon,
and my flesh and bone will rot

I'm making my way with what I know,
'cause any day could be the day I go

'Cause it's so easy to dream and thats
all you had me do
Made the real world seem so fake
and then got left without a clue
So get a whole load of me 'cause I'm
gone and I'm chasing my life
As dead as I am to you
I'm still alive

The mists of the morning cloud the world around me
'cause lately I don't wanna see anything

Or hear anyone bitch about my whereabouts and wit
My teeth grind and grit 'cause I don't want to hear this shit

'Cause it's so easy to dream and thats
all you had me do
Made the real world seem so fake
and then got left without a clue
So get a whole load of me 'cause I'm
gone and I'm chasing my life
As dead as I am to you
I'm still alive

I'm still alive
(i'm still alive)
I'm still alive
(I'm still alive)
I'm still alive
(I'm still alive)
I'm still alive
I'm still alive
