Everyday You remind me Of why I choose to live tonight And not die today You take a breath And I do too You take a breath Exhale, and I taste you We hold on to things we can’t help and we hate We hurt at the sight of shame while losing our way We bury our heads, we bury our dead day after day But do we ever wonder if there’s another way? Someday You’ll find me At the edge of all my hope And in my throat not a word to say For now let’s play Chase me away For now we’ll stay Just one more day Tomorrow I will still have so much to say to you and when I die you’ll still try to give your love to me, too

Not too late
Everyday You remind me Of why I choose to live tonight And not die today You take a breath And I do too You take a breath Exhale, and I taste you We hold on to things we can’t help and we hate We hurt at the sight of shame while losing our way We bury our heads, we bury our dead day after day But do we ever wonder if there’s another way? Someday You’ll find me At the edge of all my hope And in my throat not a word to say For now let’s play Chase me away For now we’ll stay Just one more day Tomorrow I will still have so much to say to you and when I die you’ll still try to give your love to me, too
