If I Don't Make It
It's Christmas Day 2016, 3 AM as I write this. My thoughts are keeping me awake. This is what they had to say.

You got me every time
How could I ignore a voice like yours?
So deep in my brain like you need me
You hold me every time
How could I, walk away from your embrace
I feel your heat and it's cold as ice
The demons in my head drag me down
Take me to a place this horror isn't around
And if I open my eyes before I wake
Promise me it's the pain you will take
----------
If I don't make it out alive
Could you breathe for me?
If I pass by all the warning signs,
Could you turn for me?
'Cause I want what I can't have
Could you live it for me?
-----------
My soul, feels so dead
And my body is just living in it
Who are you and who am I?
'Cause I don't recognize these eyes
This room, these clothes
I don't know them anymore
This voice, these words
I don't know them anymore
The demons in my head drag me down
Take me to a place this horror isn't around
And if I open my eyes before I wake
Promise me it's the pain you will take
-----------
If I don't make it out alive
Could you breathe for me?
If I pass by all the warning signs,
Could you turn for me?
'Cause I want what I can't have
Could you live it for me?
-----------
Tell me one more time
That this nightmare will break
And we can be set free
Tell me one more time
You remember what it was like before
If I don't make it out alive
Could you breathe for me?
If I pass by all the warning signs,
Could you turn for me?
'Cause I want what I can't have
Could you live it for me?
Could you live it for me?
