Made It Out Alive
Seb Adams Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Not for the awake to find
Wrote em down on paper planes
Threw em out behind my eyes
If you wanna find out
It's written in the sky
If you wanna find out
Read between the lines
Too stubborn to see I've been mentally unable to find
Serenity, I'm living in this faded
Reality, let's just be glad we made it out alive
Words don't mean a damn to me no more
I can scream whatever
From the top op my lungs
Cause it won't ever be heard, no
Is anybody out there
To tell me what I've done wrong
I'm subconsciously complicated
Too stubborn to see I've been mentally unable to find
Serenity, I'm living in this faded
Reality, let's just be glad we made it out alive
I wrote a little poem in the palm of my hand
To eliminate the chance of me forgetting where I'm at
If you can read this, you're awake
We can get through another day
It's hard to read when these letters are faded
I memorize it, take it to heart, embrace it
If you can read this, you're awake
We can get through another day
Subconsciously complicated
Too stubborn to see I've been mentally unable to find
Serenity, I'm living in this faded
Reality, let's just be glad we made it out alive

Line by Line Meaning
Asleep i've been keeping secrets
I have kept a lot of secrets while being asleep
Not for the awake to find
These secrets are not meant to be discovered by anyone who is awake
Wrote em down on paper planes
I wrote these secrets on paper airplanes
Threw em out behind my eyes
I mentally threw these paper airplanes behind my eyes
If you wanna find out
If you are curious to know
It's written in the sky
The answer is literally written in the sky
Read between the lines
You need to infer from the clues
Words don't mean a damn to me no more
I don't care about words anymore
I can scream whatever
I can say whatever I want to say
From the top op my lungs
As loud as I can
Cause it won't ever be heard, no
Because no one seems to be listening
Is anybody out there
Is anyone listening
To tell me what I've done wrong
To give me feedback about my actions
I wrote a little poem in the palm of my hand
I wrote a poetic message on my hand
To eliminate the chance of me forgetting where I'm at
To avoid forgetting what I am doing
If you can read this, you're awake
If you can read this message, you are conscious
We can get through another day
We can survive another day
It's hard to read when these letters are faded
The message is difficult to read because the letters are fading away
I memorize it, take it to heart, embrace it
I memorize the message, take it seriously and internalize it
Subconsciously complicated
My mind is complex without me realizing it
Too stubborn to see I've been mentally unable to find
I am too obstinate to recognize that my mental state is preventing me from finding what I want
Serenity, I'm living in this faded
I am trying to live in a tranquil state, despite the reality that is slowly disappearing
Reality, let's just be glad we made it out alive
Regardless of the difficulties, let's be happy that we made it through
