We Live
We live!
We live even as we wonder why
We live with trauma locked inside
We fight against the urge to die
Parched for love and cast aside
Childhood shame, internal blame
This mess bore a complex pain
We live and die against the grain
For ourselves we live
We live for nights like this
Basements packed with burning kids
We scream just to make sense of things
Studs and leather, survivors' wings
Childhood shame, internal blame
This mess bore a complex pain
We live and die against the grain
For ourselves we live
With pride
Childhood shame, internal blame
This mess bore a complex pain
We live and die, against the grain
For ourselves we live
We live
