Here I Am Alive Lyrics - Southern Air - Yellowcard

If I could write to the kid I was before 

I'd tell him you'd get everything you ever wanted 

But you will still want more 

Someone's gonna tell you 

Who you should wanna be 

So you forget the vision that they didn't want to see 

And when they give up, 'cause they will give up say 

"Here I am alive" 

They say you don't grow up you just grow old 

It's safe to say I haven't done both 

I made mistakes, I know, I know 

But here I am alive 

So many people close to me cut me down 

This is supposed to be a bad luck town 

I jumped, I fell, I hit the ground 

But here I am alive 

If I could write to myself when I was on top of it all, 

I'd say you're going overboard and when you are falling 

You're gonna feel so small 

Someone's gonna tell you that you deserve the worst 

They'd say you're never coming back and tell you that you're cursed 

But when they give up, 'cause they always give up say- 

"Here I am alive" 

They say you don't grow up you just grow old 

It's safe to say I haven't done both 

I made mistakes, I know, I know 

But here I am alive 

So many people close to me cut me down 

This is supposed to be a bad luck town 

I jumped, I fell, I hit the ground 

But here I am alive 

And when they give up, 'cause they will give up 

Say: "Here I am alive!!" 

And when they give up, 'cause they always give up 

Say: "Here I am alive!!" 

They say you don't grow up you just grow old 

It's safe to say I haven't done both 

I made mistakes, I know, I know 

But here I am alive 

So many people close to me cut me down 

This is supposed to be a bad luck town 

I jumped, I fell, I hit the ground 

But here I am alive 

Here I am alive 

(Here I am alive) 

Here I am alive 

(Here I am alive) 

Here I am alive 

(Here I am alive) 

Here I am alive 

(Here I am) 

If I could write to the kid I was before
