Dying To Live
Kailee Morgue Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

What's there to address?
I've been looking like a mess
Could you take me as I am?
I've been down, I've been stressed
Lately I couldn't care less
If I make any progress

But something's got to, got to give
'Cause I'm dying, dying, dying, dying just to live

I'm all alone and I still
I just can't get it off my mind
Don't think I'll let it go
I guess that I'll give it a try (Win you back)
I'm all alone and I still (Things could change)
I just can't get it off my mind (Find a way)
Don't think I'll let it go (Take my hand)
I guess that I'll give it a try

Been lighter on my feet
Just in case I've gotta leave
Indecisive tendencies
And it's hard to be discreet
Show my insecurities
Just to make a living

But something's got to, got to give
'Cause I'm dying, dying, dying, dying just to live

I'm all alone and I still
I just can't get it off my mind
Don't think I'll let it go
I guess that I'll give it a try (Win you back)
I'm all alone and I still (Things could change)
I just can't get it off my mind (Find a way)
Don't think I'll let it go (Take my place)
I guess that I'll give it a try

I love the moon
But I wanna feel the sun
I don't wanna cry
I wanna fly
I wanna love someone

(Win you back)
I'm all alone and I still (Things could change)
I just can't get it off my mind (Find a way)
Don't think I'll let it go (Take my place)
I guess that I'll give it a try

(Win you back)
I'm all alone and I still (Things could change)
I just can't get it off my mind (Find a way)
Don't think I'll let it go (Take my place)
I guess that I'll give it a try

(Win you back)
(Things could change)




(Find a way)
(Take my place)
