I Exist I Exist I Exist

Baby please
 It's the way you speak
 Forming words so easily
 And I think of the way you think
 It keeps me from falling asleep
 In that grave I call a bed
 Until you called me up and said
 "I haven't stopped crying
 My father's been drinking
 I need a place to stay
 I don't want to be here
 He's saying the words that
 He promised he would never say
 That liquid he consumes
 Makes him speak the truth"
 And I said "No, it's not that at all
 It's that bottle of lies for a troubled heart
 It's standing on the edge of a mountain top
 Screaming anything he wants
 Like, "Look at me, look at me, look at me, look at me, look at me, look at me, look at me, look at me
 Because I exist, I exist, I exist, I exist, I exist, I exist"
 ♪
 I remember the way you shook
 It's a shame that we're not soul mates
 'Cause if I didn't know better
 I'd say this feels pretty good
 And how could I be scared?
 When I stretch and feel you're there
 So shut your mouth
 'Cause these words will speak themselves
 I can feel them in these blankets
 And they're surrounding your figure
 Embraced in the quilts
 And I can't help but think
 You're my missing puzzle piece
 ♪
 I wake up in the hallway, I'm looking for sunlight
 With rays that will cure me of the pain that keeps my lungs tight
 Ignoring the voices and feelings that tell me
 To get out of this house
 I can't make them stop
 I'm just like my mom
 And you said, "No, these demons will fall
 You're so precious to us all"
 And I said, "I, I can't do this alone
 I still need you to hold
 So don't let go, don't let go, don't let go, don't let go, don't let go, don't let go
 'Cause I'm afraid, I'm afraid, I'm afraid, I'm afraid, I'm afraid, I'm afraid, I'm afraid"
