Takes
Lyrics
[verse]
Daylight comes and I'm still wide awake
Counting hours by the choices that I make
Chasing something that keeps slipping through my hand
Half a feeling that I barely understand
[verse]
City lights keep blinking like they know my name
Everybody here is playing the same game
We keep saying that tomorrow we'll be fine
Living half a life and calling it a sign
[chorus]
I want something more than this halfway high
I want something real before the night goes by
Give me one more reason not to let it slide
I'm just trying to feel alive, alive, alive
[verse]
Friends keep fading out like static on the phone
Rooms get louder but I still feel alone
Every high I chase leaves a little less behind
Half a heart is a hard thing to unwind
[chorus]
I want something more than this halfway high
I want something real before the night goes by
Give me one more reason not to let it slide
I'm just trying to feel alive, alive, alive
[bridge]
Maybe if I stop and catch my breath
Maybe there's a version of me left
Not the one that's running out of time
Just a simple kind of alive
[chorus]
I want something more than this halfway high
I want something real before the night goes by
Give me one more reason not to let it slide
I'm just trying to feel alive, alive, alive

Daylight comes and I'm still wide awake
Counting hours by the choices that I make
Chasing something that keeps slipping through my hand
Half a feeling that I barely understand

City lights keep blinking like they know my name
Everybody here is playing the same game
We keep saying that tomorrow we'll be fine
Living half a life and calling it a sign

[chorus]
I want something more than this halfway high
I want something real before the night goes by
Give me one more reason not to let it slide
I'm just trying to feel alive, alive, alive

Rooms get louder but I still feel alone
Every high I chase leaves a little less behind
Half a heart is a hard thing to unwind

[chorus]
I want something more than this halfway high
I want something real before the night goes by
Give me one more reason not to let it slide
I'm just trying to feel alive, alive, alive

Maybe there's a version of me left
Not the one that's running out of time
Just a simple kind of alive

I want something real before the night goes by
Give me one more reason not to let it slide
I'm just trying to feel alive, alive, alive
