Live And Not Survive

 Stopping and staring at things as it passes by
Wondering if it was always there or has come alive
Oh! It’s my birthday and am turning twenty five!
What was I doing till now? Was I sleeping tight?

Am awake to a great big morning
Time is running without giving warnings
What I can do?
What I wana do
Is just stocking up the pile.

I wana live and not survive
Wana breathe the air and come alive
Don’t wana stress anymore
And no regrets anymore
I wana live before I die

I feel like turning the time back to when I was nine
Or to a point when I last felt that all was fine
If I could only reach it all at the same time
Magic or witchcraft, science or myth all works just fine

Oh! I can’t  go against the nature
Messing with the time into the future
Wana have a past
Strong enough to last
Present is running without a sign

I wana live and not survive
Wana breathe the air and come alive
Don’t wana stress anymore
And no regrets anymore
I wana live before I die

Choices are always hard to make
But the rest of my life is at stake
Life is made up of a big ‘What If’
All will just change with the chances I take

Turning back is not an option
Settling down is not the answer
Can never be a part of the crowd
Coz am the childlike sole survivor

Graduating with rest of my life
Without a rule book it feels like a strife
Wana make the way
Living everyday
Smiling seeing the sun that shines

I wana live and not survive
Wana breathe the air and come alive
Don’t wana stress anymore
And no regrets anymore
I wana live before I die
