Summary:
So excited to share this with everyone here! Gus (duhsjaak) asked if he could use my poem 'I'm Alive' to create a song. I'm honored to post it on SR and hope others will enjoy it as much as i have. Gus, thank you so much for dedicating your time and energy into this! 🙏🙏

Can i ask you to ask me if i’m okay?
Is it weird if i don’t listen to that question anyway?

Isn’t it silly to live life with a raised chin,
while my body is covered with more scar tissue than skin?

While life is given, death takes it back for a price i can’t refuse
My time isn’t worth living when there’s no gain or height to lose

Here i stand again on a sky scraping roof
Life doesn’t take me serious, it mimics my every move

These dark thoughts bring light to my soul
These bright spirits may help break my fall

Reflecting on this person in front of me
makes me wonder if there’s more beyond this glass to see
Is it okay if i walk out early?
Pretending i’m fine has taken a deadly toll on me

Never felt so alive on the edge of living
Death is the final chapter of this unfinished book I live in

While life is given, death takes it back for a price i can’t refuse
My time isn’t worth living when there’s no gain or height to lose

While life is given, death takes it back for a price i can’t refuse
My time isn’t worth living when there’s no gain or height to lose

when there’s no gain or height to lose
when there’s no gain or height to lose
