Half Alive

It's four am, I'm waking up to your perfume
Don't get up, I'll get through on my own
I don't know if I'm home or if I lost my way into your room
I'm spiraling into my doom, I'm feeling half alive

But I know one day you and I will be free
To live and die by our own rules
Free despite the fact that men are fools

I'm almost alive
And I need you to try and save me
It's okay that we're dying
But I need to survive tonight, tonight

Well, excuse me while I get killed softly
Heart slows down and I can hardly tell you I'm okay
At least till yesterday you know you caught me off my highest guard
Believe me when I say it's hard, we'll get through this tonight

And I know one day you and I will be free
To live and die by our own rules
Free despite the fact that men are fools

I'm almost alive
And I need you to try and save me
It's okay that we're dying
But I need to survive tonight, tonight

And you touch my hand ever so slightly
Girl, I'm not ready for this yet
And the deadly looks you cast upon me
I won't regret, I won't regret, I won't regret, I won't regret

And I was trying to disappear
But you got me wrapped around you
I can hardly breathe without you

I was trying to disappear
But I got lost in your eyes now
You brought me down to size now

I'm almost alive
And I need you to try and save me
It's okay that we're dying
But I need to survive tonight, tonight, tonight

I'm almost alive
And I need you to try and save me
It's okay that we're dying
But I need to survive tonight, tonight
I need to survive tonight, tonight
