Switchfoot - Thrive lyrics

rate me

Been fighting things that I can't see in

Like voices coming from the inside of me and

Like doing things I find hard to believe in

Am I myself or am I dreaming?

I've been awake for an hour or so

Checking for a pulse but I just don't know

Am I a man when I feel like a ghost?

The stranger in the mirror is wearing my clothes

No I'm not alright

I know that I'm not right

A steering wheel don't mean you can drive

A warm body don't mean I'm alive

No I'm not alright

I know that I'm not right

Feels like I travel but I never arrive

I want to thrive not just survive

I come alive when I hear you singing

But lately I haven't been hearing a thing and

I get the feeling that I'm in between

A machine and a man who only looks like me

I try and hide it and not let it show

But deep down inside me I just don't know

Am I a man when I feel like a hoax?

The stranger in the mirror is wearing my clothes

No I'm not alright

I know that I'm not right

A steering wheel don't mean you can drive

A warm body don't mean I'm alive

No I'm not alright

I know that I'm not right

Feels like I travel but I never arrive

I want to thrive not just survive

I'm always close but I'm never enough

I'm always in line but I'm never in love

I get so down but I won't give up

I get slowed down but I won't give up

Been fighting things that I can't see in

Like voices coming from the inside of me and

Like doing things I find hard to believe in

Am I myself or am I dreaming?

No I'm not alright

I know that I'm not right

A steering wheel don't mean you can drive

A warm body don't mean I'm alive

No I'm not alright

I know that I'm not right

Feel like I travel but I never arrive

I want to thrive not just survive

I want to thrive not just survive
