Call me when you're alive

For the only one I have

By Frankie MartinelliPublished 6 years ago 1 min read

Where do I go now everything hurts?

Where do I go, and when will I learn

Sitting here lonely, all bridges burnt

Shes the only one I have

Can I just say I'm ecstatic about that

Still what can I do?

She says call me when you're alive

I say my love I'm only alive when I'm with you

I've died the rest of the time

Who do I look to now the pain is real?

People tell me how to think, breathe and feel

But she is just lovely, the tonic for my head

You can keep it all, and I'll keep her instead.

Still what can I do?

She says call me when you're alive

I say my love I'm only alive when I'm with you

I've died the rest of the time
