Kimberly Townsend - How I Got There Lyrics

They're all old, tired
I don't feel them anymore
Plus I'm waiting on the evidence
To settle up the score

So I sit tall
With the courage I could find
And the primal need to feel it all
Pulsating all the time

But the fight's over there
Down the block and to the right
And the chaos is just dark enough
That my ready zips up tight
But it's no life

Holy shit, we're alive
Open up your eyes
Holy shit, we're alive
Open up your eyes
Holy shit, open up your eyes

I'm good at pause
Finding ways to wait to wake
Through the lift away and lazy play
But what a mess it makes

After the fog
Come the reasons for the spree
Then the dusting off
And feeling fraught
For mucking up the scene

Plus the fight's over there
On the stage and in the light
And the chaos is just steep enough
That my steady loses sight
But it's no life

Holy shit, we're alive
Open up your eyes
Holy shit, we're alive
Open up your eyes
Holy shit, open up your eyes

So boss up little one
It's not later it's today
You avoid the effort
But in that you lose your way

So boss up little one
It's not later it's today
You avoid the effort
But in that you lose your way

Holy shit, we're alive
Open up your eyes
Holy shit, we're alive
Open up your eyes
Holy shit, open up your eyes
