Every Second - From Ashes to New

I’m broken, I’m hoping

For a reason to keep on going

Doors open and closing

Everything seems like slow motion

I’ve chosen this moment

To stop my self-erosion

I’m focused on owning

Myself, my own opponent

But in this moment that is falling apart

I keep thinking

Is the path I chose where I should start?

I keep sinking

I’m dying every second I’m alive

Every second I’m alive

I’m trying to feed the fire that’s inside me

The fire that’s inside

I’m dying every second I’m alive

This life’s reflection in my eyes

It reminds me the scars make me stronger

I won’t go quietly

Won’t let the past unwind me

I don’t know why I see

Worth trying to put behind me

But in this moment that is falling apart

I keep thinking

Is the path I chose where I should start?

I keep sinking

I’m dying every second I’m alive

Every second I’m alive

I’m trying to feed the fire that’s inside me

The fire that’s inside

I’m dying every second I’m alive

This life’s reflection in my eyes

It reminds me the scars make me stronger

Every second I’m alive I’m getting closer to my grave

I’ve tried my best to just survive, feels like I’m broken everyday

I’m hoping that I make it

I’m open but I’m vacant

I’m closed inside this basement

Time to try to fight to shake it

I’m shaking and I’m waiting still debating on which way to go

I’m swaying and I’m fading no escaping still afraid to know

Inside my thoughts are racing so I’m bracing for a weighted stone

The world that’s on my shoulders that I may just have to change alone

I’m dying every second I’m alive

Every second I’m alive

I’m trying to feed the fire that’s inside me

The fire that’s inside

I’m dying every second I’m alive

This life’s reflection in my eyes

It reminds me the scars make me stronger
