it's hard to keep movin' toward your goals
when you know you're just getting old.
i think i've forgotten how to try, it's stopped making sense
life is just the time i spend between suicide attempts.
24 now, i don't care if i see 25
when life is void of progress, is it worth being alive?
everything wrong with my life is my fault
i open up my wounds and i pour in the salt.
i shoulda been something by now somehow,
i shoulda made sense, i never had the chance...
i'm not getting closer to my goals and i'm giving up,
like freud said, "life is all about waiting to be dead."

well i'm still alive, i'm still here tryin'
and i'm still alive, still got that flame inside.
i, i'm still alive, i'm still here tryin'...
i'm buried alive.

i'm still alive(x4) i'm still tryin'(x4)
a quarter century of my life is gone,
i can't figure out what the hell went wrong;
got no job, have no life, and there's lack of sex in my city.
it's hard for me to be happy when life seems so shitty.
all i wanna do is try to get some sleep,
but those pills that i take that help me so i'm not a creep...
i can't sing, i can't dance, i can't even rap
it takes me 30 tries to get one decent track.
pumpin' gas, throwin' pies, tryin' to earn some money so i can get by.
i work hard for my cash, but i spend it all on bills,
if i had more money, i'd end it all with pills,
smoke some pot, get real high,
roll on some E, and kiss the sky.
that may be your life, but it's not for me
it's like being buried alive, and someone's throwing dirt on top of me...

well i'm still alive, i'm still here tryin'
and i'm still alive, still got that flame inside.
i, i'm still alive, i'm still here tryin'...
i'm buried alive.

i'm still alive...
