[Verse 1]
I'm alive, I can breathe the air
I can hurt you, I can pull out hair
Somersault into your room
You can't catch me, I'm carried away
[Verse 2]
I woke up, to another late door
I'm getting up with nothing on my mind
Halfway down the stairs, I feel a pain in my chest
I shouldn't have ever got out of bed
[Chorus]
Then everything shattered
Just at the point that it mattered
Yes, then everything shattered
Just at the point that it mattered, ah-ha
[Verse 3]
I'm alive, I can breathe the air
I can hurt you, I can pull out hair
Anything in your mind, don't put it in mine
You can't catch me, I'm carried away
[Verse 4]
I woke up, I wake up every day
I have nothing, there is nothing to say
Halfway down the stairs, I feel a pain in my chest
I shouldn't have ever got out of bed
[Chorus]
Then everything shattered
Just at the point that it mattered
Yes, then everything shattered
Just at the point that it mattered, ah-ha
[Bridge]
I'm alive, I'm can breathe the air
I can hurt you, I can pull out hair
Halfway down the stairs, I feel a pain in my chest
I shouldn't have ever got out of bed
[Outro]
I'm hanging over
