Citizen Soldier – Reason To Live

How many nights have you waited for someone to care

Thinkin’ dyin’ is what you deserve?

Like a sad song that no one seems to understand

‘Cause some pain is just too much for words

No, I don’t know your name, no, I can’t see your face

But I’ve been to that place in the dark

So, in case you just needed to hear someone say

I’m so proud of you for getting this far

*

So, if you’re feeling like dyin’, no tears left for cryin’

Alone at the edge of a cliff

If you’re so sick of fighting the monsters you’re hidin’

And wonderin’ if you would be missed

You’re not the only one that’s feeling like this

If you’re hearin’ this song, it’s a gift

A reason to live

*

How many times have you reached out for anyone’s hand

From the depths of your personal hell?

And then counted the ways you could end all your pain

‘Cause you’re so tired of saving yourself

*

I’m a stranger at best, but please don’t second-guess

All the hope that you hear in my voice

This is not some cliché, promise you if you stay

Someday you’ll see that you were well worth that choice

*

So, if you’re feeling like dyin’, no tears left for cryin’

Alone at the edge of a cliff

If you’re so sick of fighting the monsters you’re hidin’

And wonderin’ if you would be missed

You’re not the only one that’s feeling like this

If you’re hearin’ this song, it’s a gift

*

What a beautiful truth that a human can choose

To become more than just what they feel

‘Cause the hell in your head will be nothing compared

To the person that it couldn’t kill
