I Want to Come Alive

I'm dying a bit,
More each day,
Felling thins start
To slip away.

I wonder why
Things keep going wrong
Wonder where
My life has gone.

I want to come alive,
Be rid of my fears.
I want to come alive,
Wont you wipe away my tears.

Life seems harder
With each passing day.
I sometimes wonder
Why I bothered to stay.

I want to be everything
Yet I know I'm nothing at all,
And so deeper into this pit
I continue to fall.

I want to come alive.
I want to be free.
I want to come alive.
I want to be me.

I want to stop
The burning flame,
Want the sadness
To be tamed.

I don't want to feel
This jealousy!
But I guess
That's just me.

I want to come alive,
Leave behind the pain.
I want to come alive,
But I'm drowning in the rain...
