🖤 <alive (Reimagined)

Intro: I didn’t feel anything And then I felt this Verse 1: I’ve been moving through the days on autopilot Smiling when it’s expected Nodding at conversations I don’t remember later I thought feeling nothing was safer Than feeling everything at once I shut the door quietly And called it balance Pre-Chorus: But something cracked tonight And I didn’t run Chorus: I don’t feel healed I don’t feel whole But I feel something in my bones I don’t have answers I don’t feel brave But I don’t feel gone today If this is all it means to be alive I’ll take it as it comes I don’t need fireworks Just proof I’m not numb Verse 2: I forgot how silence sounded Without fear attached to it Forgot how it felt to sit still Without punishing myself I’m not chasing happiness I’m not running from the dark I’m just learning how to stay Inside my own heart Pre-Chorus: I’m not fixed I’m just here Chorus: I don’t feel healed I don’t feel strong But I’ve been holding on this long I don’t feel fearless I don’t feel saved But I’m still breathing anyway If this is all it means to be alive I’ll stop asking for more I don’t need to feel amazing I just need to feel it, raw Bridge: Maybe being alive Isn’t a moment Maybe it’s a quiet decision You make again and again To stay To listen To not disappear Just because you could Final Chorus: I don’t feel healed I don’t feel clean But I’m closer than I’ve been I don’t feel finished I don’t feel new But I finally feel like me If this is all it means to be alive I won’t push it away I don’t need perfection I just need today Outro: I’m still here And right now That’s enough
