Every Second Songtext
von From Ashes to New

I′m broken, I'm hoping for a reason to keep on going
Doors open and closing, everything seems like slow motion
I′ve chosen this moment to stop my self-erosion
I'm focused on owning myself, my own opponent

But in this moment that is falling apart, I keep thinking
Is the path I've chosen where I should start?
I keep sinking

I′m dying every second I′m alive, every second I'm alive
I′m trying to feed the fire that's inside me, the fire that′s inside
I'm dying every second I′m alive, this life's reflection in my eyes
Reminds me the scars made me stronger

I won't go quietly, won′t let the past confine me
I don′t know why I see what I've tried to put behind me


But in this moment that is falling apart, I keep thinking
Is the path I′ve chosen where I should start?
I keep sinking

I'm dying every second I′m alive, every second I'm alive
I′m trying to feed the fire that's inside me, the fire that's inside
I′m dying every second I′m alive, this life's reflection in my eyes
Reminds me the scars made me stronger

Every second I′m alive, I'm getting closer to my grave
I′ve tried my best to just survive, feels like I'm broken every day
I′m hoping that I make it, I'm open, but I'm vacant
I′m closed inside this basement, time to try, to fight, to shake it

I′m shaking, and I'm waiting, still debating on which way to go
I′m swaying, and I'm fading, no escaping, still afraid to know
Inside my thoughts are racing, so I′m bracing for a weighted stone
The world that's on my shoulders that I may just have to change alone


I′m dying every second I'm alive, every second I'm alive
I′m trying to feed the fire that′s inside me, the fire that's inside
I′m dying every second I'm alive, this life′s reflection in my eyes
Reminds me the scars made me stronger
