Alive Inside - Gemini Syndrome

You stand on the brink

You stand on the precipice

And you can’t stop looking down

You’re starting to think

And hating the prejudice

Even though no one’s around

You want to fly

But you’re stapled to the ground

You say «Why can’t I just spread my wings?»

And say goodbye?

We don’t care for the accolades

We don’t care for the lies

Because everything here will surely die

It’s ok to feel alive inside

Even when you feel alone

It’s ok to question everything

'Cause everyone eventually

Finds their way home

We dance on the ledge

We laugh at the heretics

We know we have this figured out

We push to the edge

We push 'til we’re sick of it

We push beyond every form of doubt

They try to pry

They try to make us lose our grip

We turn our backs because we know we’re better

Then all this shit

All they want are the accolades

All they want is a prize

But we take pity on the pain they hold inside

It’s ok to feel alive inside

Even when you feel alone

It’s ok to question everything

'Cause everyone eventually

Finds their way home

I don’t want, I don’t need, I don’t care

What did you think that I would say?

It is a choice that I make every single day

It’s mine to make the choice to be alive in

How you like me now?

There’s no room for extremities

There’s no time for reprise

It only takes a moment to decide

It’s ok to feel alive inside

Even when you feel alone

It’s ok to question everything

'Cause everyone eventually

Finds their way home

You gotta make a choice

And find your way back home

We are alive inside
