ALIVE ENOUGH Verse 1 I woke up with the sunlight cutting through the blinds For once I didn’t hate the thought of killing time Coffee on the counter, old song on the radio Funny how a little peace can feel like letting go I’ve been living like a ghost inside a crowded room Carrying around a storm and calling it the truth But something in me shifted when the morning showed up clear I caught myself still smiling like I wanted to be here Pre-Chorus I’m not saying every shadow disappeared I’m not saying I don’t still feel the years Chorus But I’m alive enough to turn the music up Alive enough to finally feel the rush Windows down, both hands reaching for the sky For the first time in forever, I don’t wanna hide I’m alive enough to laugh without a reason Alive enough to believe in changing seasons I don’t need forever, I don’t need too much Tonight I’m breathing And I’m alive enough Verse 2 There are still some names I hate to hear out loud Still a couple memories that know how to drag me down Still some nights the silence puts a fist around my chest But I’m learning being broken doesn’t mean there’s nothing left I called a couple friends I hadn’t seen in way too long We stayed up telling stories, screaming every stupid song Nobody fixed my damage, nobody had to try We just kept the headlights moving underneath an open sky Pre-Chorus I’m not saying every scar has disappeared I just finally stopped wishing I wasn’t here Chorus Yeah, I’m alive enough to turn the music up Alive enough to finally feel the rush Windows down, both hands reaching for the sky For the first time in forever, I don’t wanna hide I’m alive enough to laugh without a reason Alive enough to believe in changing seasons I don’t need forever, I don’t need too much Tonight I’m breathing And I’m alive enough Bridge Maybe healing isn’t some finish line Maybe it’s a Tuesday night Cheap gas, warm air, dashboard lights And realizing you’re alright Maybe happiness ain’t fireworks Maybe it’s knowing the worst still hurt But it didn’t get the final word No, it didn’t get the final word Breakdown I’m still here Still loud Still driving Still proud Still scarred Still tough Still breathing Alive enough Final Chorus I’m alive enough to turn the whole thing up Alive enough to fall in love with us With every wrong turn, every mile, every night With the man in the mirror finally coming back to life I’m alive enough to laugh without a reason Alive enough to believe in changing seasons I don’t need perfect, I don’t need too much I’ve got tonight And that’s alive enough Outro Windows down Radio up Heart still beating Alive enough Yeah, the world didn’t change Maybe I did And for tonight That’s enough
