still breathing

I'm like a child looking off on the horizon
 I'm like an ambulance that's turning on the sirens
 Oh, I'm still alive
 I'm like a soldier coming home for the first time
 I dodged a bullet and I walked across a landmine
 Oh, I'm still alive
 Am I bleeding am I bleeding from the storm?
 Just shine a light into the wreckage, so far away, away
 'Cause I'm still breathing
 'Cause I'm still breathing on my own
 My head's above the rain and roses
 Making my way away
 'Cause I'm still breathing
 'Cause I'm still breathing on my own
 My head's above the rain and roses
 Making my way away
 My way to you
 I'm like a junkie tying off for the last time
 I'm like a loser that's betting on his last dime
 Oh, I'm still alive
 I'm like a son that was raised without a father
 I'm like a mother barely keeping it together
 Oh, I'm still alive
 Am I bleeding, am I bleeding from the storm?
 Just shine a light into the wreckage, so far away, away
 'Cause I'm still breathing
 'Cause I'm still breathing on my own
 My head's above the rain and roses
 Making my way away
 'Cause I'm still breathing
 'Cause I'm still breathing on my own
 My head's above the rain and roses
 Making my way, away, away
 As I walked out on the ledge
 Are you scared to death to live?
 I've been running all my life
 Just to find a home that's for the restless
 And the truth that's in the message
 Making my way, away, away
 'Cause I'm still breathing
 'Cause I'm still breathing on my own
 My head's above the rain and roses
 Making my way away
 'Cause I'm still breathing
 'Cause I'm still breathing on my own
 My head's above the rain and roses
 Making my way, away, away
 'Cause I'm still breathing
 'Cause I'm still breathing on my own
 My head's above the rain and roses
 Making my way, away
 My way to you
