I'd rather have someone live for me
Than have someone die for me
Anyone can jump in front of a bullet in one last tragic action
But how many can put the blades down?
How many can make a constant choice to live despite their struggles
As opposed to a momentary decision?
Yes, I'd rather have someone live for me
Than have someone die for me
Because I don't wanna be the one everyone avoids eye contact with at the funeral
I wanna be the one people look to and think "she really changed his life"
I wanna be the one he looks at and thinks, "she gave me a reason to get up each morning"
I don't wanna be the cause of a death, romantic and tragic as it may seem
I wanna be the reason for the decision to live
