I'm Not Dead
Buck-O-Nine Lyrics
Make me wanna pop
Make me wanna go
If anybodys listening
It makes me wanna know
Why I don't know a thing about you
You gotta listen to the room
I'm alive, I'm alive, I'm alive
And I'm outta my head
I'm right, I'm right, I'm right
Can't you see it?
I'll try, I'll try, I'll try
To get it right
Down for life and living?
Can't you see the light?
Burning in my brain
And tickin' in my head
If anybodys listening
I've made my fingers bled
I've seen you look around me
I've seen you look right through
I'm alive, I'm alive, I'm alive
And I'm outta my head
I'm right, I'm right, I'm right
Can't you see it?
I'll try, I'll try, I'll try
To get it right
Down for life and living?
Can't you see the light?
Get me in the light
Get me in your head
Give me a sign
That I'm not dead
Get me in the light
Get me in your head
Give me a sign
That I'm not dead
