How To Live
Saliva
I looked with Ghost inside my head, so long
We built this home and I let no one in
Emptied my soul to empty every bottle
I had control till I hit the bottom
Had to face the pain, had to wrestle doubt
Thought I was lost for good till I made it out
Everybody wants to change but never right now
I had to wake up before my time was
Out
I was dancing 'round the rim
Till my feet slipped off the edge
Had to drown in Jack and Jim
Just to feel at home inside my skin
Said I'd get a grip
Then I took another sip
Almost drank myself to death
Till the reaper showed me how to live
No one will know the wars I fought with sobriety
Yeah, I was so close to killing what's left inside of me
(I) Had to face the pain, had to wrestle doubt
(I) Thought I was lost for good till I made it out
Everybody wants to change but never right now
I had to wake up before my time ran
Out
I was dancing 'round the rim
Till my feet slipped off the edge
Had to drown in Jack and Jim
Just to feel at home inside my skin
Said I'd get a grip
Then I took another sip
Almost drank myself to death
Till the reaper showed me how to live
I gotta wake up before my time runs out
Yeah, I gotta wake up before my time runs out
I was dancing 'round the rim
Till my feet slipped off the edge
Had to drown in Jack and Jim
Just to feel at home inside my skin
Said I'd get a grip
Then I took another sip
Almost drank myself to death
Till the reaper showed me how to live
