You know too much about the girl I buried at 21
Did no one tell you that she's now gone?
She was tired of bleeding out
And staining anyone who she's around
To drown the sound, it wore her down
She pushed away all her friends
Isolated herself again and called it freedom to pretend
To her parents she was doing fine
While she sedated herself in the night
With screens, and smoke, and cheap wine
So I familiarise how it feels to die
I've tried drown out the sound for so long
Like it's normalised, just to smile and lie
It's like I left the extractor fan on
I'm hoping one day I might
Try and fight back the light
I'll do anything just to feel alive (Alive, alive, alive)
I wanna be afraid to die (To die, to die, to die)
Dreaming of waking in a hospital bed
To affirm that anybody would care
I think so casually about my death
Grieving a youth that was recklessly spent
Wasted potential laying on the cement
The sirens loud, it wears me down
So I familiarise how it feels to die
I've tried drown out the sound for so long
Like it's normalised, just to smile and lie
It's like I left the extractor fan on
I'm hoping one day I might
Try and fight back the light
I'll do anything just to feel alive (Alive, alive, alive)
I wanna be afraid to die (To die, to die, to die)
I used love as lessons, mourned for when I was wise
I grew from what had killed my innocence into a rational mind
Walked past my wasted potential and didn't bat an eye
And in moment, I realised
I've changed my mind
I'm afraid to die
I'm afraid to die
I'm afraid to die
I've changed my mind
I'm afraid to die
So I familiarise how it feels to die
I've tried drown out the sound for so long
Like it's normalised, just to smile and lie
It's like I left the extractor fan on
I'm hoping one day I might
Try and fight back the light
I'll do anything just to feel alive (Alive, alive, alive)
I wanna be afraid to die (To die, to die, to die)
I think I've changed my mind
I'm afraid to die
