As long as I don’t fall apart, I can live a little broken.
As long as I don’t feed that demon, I can make it starve.
Falling back into the basement, I think I need repentance.
Rising up to treetops I wish I could fly away.

Do you accept your fate?
I ask myself.
It’s an easy question, I have no say.
Before I die I want to wish to not want it.
Life is beautiful, but why is death so wanted.

I don’t want to die.
I’m not depressed.
But I envy those who already passed.
It gets hard sometimes.
Way over my head.
But despite it all.
I remain on this earth.

I lost so much in my life, but I still find joy.
My heart broke so much, I can’t count anymore.
I tell God I need strength, and after that it comes.
I don’t care what may come, I don’t care anymore.

Do you accept your fate?
Blue heaven, open up.
I want to wish to cheat death and live till I can’t stand up.
I worry about myself, but I still dream so much.
I wanna love a boy till I can’t give him up.

I mean it when I say I don’t mind cracks in me.
As long as I’ll be fine, I wanna stay and live.
I’m not depressed but it gets really hard sometimes.
I need assurance but I don’t know who to ask.

Do you accept your fate?
I ask myself.
I wanna say I do, but I just can’t.
