lyrics

The sound of the doorbell wakes me up early this morning Light is burning my eyes while I go downstairs Two men at the door, mom is crying, she screams “go away, come back to your room!” I run in my bedroom while the fear devours my brain Hours are passing and I don’t know what happened “Dad is gone in a better place” is the only thing that I remember of that day when I was only ten Years passed and I grew up, my mom drowned his demon and lost his mind in a spiral of drugs My sister became a little girl with only me as father and all of my family depended on me But I’m only seventeen, I can’t bear such a weight, father please come back to me I can’t resist without you I’m not ready to take a responsibility like this I can’t see a way forward There’s a fork in front of me Stay and fight, in danger to disappoint my family? Or run away and live with the sense of guilt? I’m not strong enough to decide My only way is deciding to not decide Whiskey and pills go down my throath
Now is time to sleep

Stay and fight?
Or run away?
I’m not strong enough
And now it’s too late

What have I done? A thunder in my breast hits my heart A light burns my eyes, fuck I’m alive I saw the gates of hell but I come back I have a war to fight and I swear I will win Father I wish to hear your voice again but now I know that this will not happen So I am alone against all the world but fuck I’m alive

I am alive
