I keep mixing it all up Living and being alive, I don't see the difference They are just two different states of the same thing Ice is still water and water can still boil It can turn to steam and be forgotten Yesterday was once today but unless there is a tragedy it is forgotten Merged with all the other stories rumbling in your head Is that what it's like to be alive To feel like everyday is a new chance Or is living to be stuck in the past Not moving on but not forgetting those left behind What am I supposed to do Because if being alive is to live only for oneself I'd rather be dead
