Alive (Dead)

[Verse 1]
It's really cold, no one to hold
That empty feeling's getting old
Your soul is sold
You're on the edge of playing fold
Not growing old
Not into doing what you're told, just let it roll
She, she's really cool
You met her outside after school, sat by the pool
It's five degrees, is she a fool, is she a tool?
A tool that you could put to use to help your own damn mood

[Chorus]
You only want me 'cause I'm sad
And you feel nothing
Push me till I'm mad, so I do something
Something that will hurt you, or heal you, or give you a feeling
To prove that there might be a reason for staying alive
To put up a fight, to wanna be right (to wanna be right)
To prove that there might be a reason for staying alive

[Verse 2]
Push the limit
Push her 'til she's acting out of line, on a decline
She's screaming, crying, but you're fine
She wants to die
You pull her closer just to try to feel just what it's like
To feel a thing at all
You know you're not in love
You didn't pick her 'cause she's sent from up above
So much emotion, all the pain, and all the love
Want a reaction that you never could have felt
'Cause it kinda helps

[Chorus]
You only want me 'cause I'm sad
And you feel nothing
Push me till I'm mad, so I do something
Something that will hurt you, or heal you, or give you a feeling
To prove that there might be a reason for staying alive
To put up a fight, to wanna be right (wanna be right)
To prove that there might be a reason for staying alive

[Bridge]
You only want me 'cause I'm sad
And you feel nothing
Push me till I'm mad, so I do something
Something that will hurt you, or heal you, or give you a feeling
To prove that there might be a reason for staying alive

[Outro]
Her name was Trey, she ran away
When she was young, she had to stay within the gates
She fucking hated Mom and Jay, was their mistake
And now she's here and has to pay for all the strain
She had a face she used to make
When she was sad, but had to fake her mental state
She knows she made a few mistakes, she's no disgrace
She told me that she needed space, then she ditched this place
