Start Again - Alive Like Me

I really like this song. It's probably one of my most favorite.

I never made this clear but

I'm tired of waiting for the right moment to appear

I built my life on something not so stable

And I've been falling ever since I was able to stand.

They say it's harder on your own and you know it's true

Now I'm ready to break through

I've spent all these years of my life begging for a plan that never came

So, I broke all the bones in my legs

and taught myself to stand alone again to become a better man

Because I hate who I was turning out to be

but I'm sure that this will not be the end of my suffering

I just thought it'd be easier

but now i know that I can't take it back

there's nothing you can do that will change the way i act

so the words will hang over me

"Just give it up there's no way you're gonna win"

It's never too late to pick yourself up and start again

Are we ever gonna change?

This feeling's taking over me

Every time I think I get it right

And I don't think I'll feel okay

If this ends with misery

But it's just another chance that

I'm willing to take tonight

Hoping that this would be easier

But now I know that I can't take it back

There's nothing you can do

That will change the way I act

So the words will hang over me

"Just give it up there's no way you're gonna win"

It's never too late to pick yourself up and start again
