You are what pulsates through my veins
You help to keep me alive
What would I do without you?
Nothing!
Is the answer to that question
I would not be able to be here
Because right this second
You are the only thing keeping me on the earth
Because as i walk these grounds
I can garantee
I'm not full of all these smiles
That i put on everyday
To make eerything seem okay
I am just a girl behind this mask
That no one ever really knows about
So anyday you are ready to just stop
I really wouldn't mind
Because you pulsating through my body
Is the only real thing
That is keeping me alive
