Another morning of the sun in my eyes

I squint and pull the covers of just one more five

I've got a dozen different emails saying "Sorry, nice try" and "Better luck next time"

Ugh, alright

Some days the colors feel dull and dim

And I wonder if my life is balancing on a whim

Of a silly little girl who let her fantasies brim

Who's chances are slim, no, it's fine

Cause I survive on scattered lines

Just one more try

(two, three, four)

Today's the day I'm gonna make it

I am done with stumbling I've gotta walk that line

Between reality and fragments in my mind

I've seen all this time

And even if I never get there

I would rather look back at my time on earth and say I tried

It won't be easy and I'll fumble it a hundred times

It won't be perfect but it's why I'm alive

(Ugh, okay)

Some days I feel I'm paddling up stream

Though if anybody asks I'll say I'm living the dream

The windows on the socials aren't as they seem and I wanna scream

The ambition I'm missing is way more than an omission of love

My thoughts are clawing, gnawing, but somehow it's just not good enough

To follow through, all you gotta do is focus up

Such pretty platitudes are glued on top of every bluff, yeah

Cause I survive on fragile lies

Just one more try

Today's the day I'm gonna make it

I am done with stumbling I've gotta walk that line

Between reality and fragments in my mind

I've seen all this time

And even if I never get there

I would rather look back at my time on earth and say I tried

It won't be easy and I'll fumble it a hundred times

It won't be perfect but it's why I'm alive

I'm not gonna leave this world without my mark

Even if it takes a million shots in the dark

This car runs on a single spark

On a single spark, on a single spark

(Yeah, just one more time)

Today's the day I'm gonna make it

I am done with stumbling I've gotta walk that line

Between reality and fragments in my mind

I've seen all this time

And even if I never get there

I would rather look back at my time on earth and say I tried

It won't be easy and I'll fumble it a hundred times

It won't be perfect but it's why I'm alive (why I'm alive)

I'm alive
