To Stay Alive

[Verse 1]
When I didn't know of you
I wondered what
Love felt like and how to
Live a good life
I gained control of you
I never let go of what I wanted
I needed my way
And I still do, girl

[Chorus]
But I gotta keep you in my life
If you ain't here, I can't survive
Now I gotta turn back on the lights
To turn back time
How could I keep you with me through my lies?
Now I'm guilty of my crimes
But I gotta keep both of my lies
To stay alive
To stay alive
Stay alive
Stay alive
Stay alive
Stay alive
Stay alive
Stay alive
Stay alive
Stay alive

[Verse 2]
Yeah, I know I gotta keep it in my head sometimes
When I get in my head you know I lose my mind
I turn up on you till the sun go down, I stay up and apologize
You were with me 'fore I made this noise
But I never gave you no choice
I ain't trying to waste your time
But I got no voice without you

[Chorus]
But I gotta keep you in my life
If you ain't here, I can't survive
Now I gotta turn back on the light
To turn back time
How could I keep you with me through my lies?
Now I'm guilty of my crimes
But I gotta keep both of my lies
To stay alive
