"Outliving" lyrics

"Outliving"

I've been going out, getting drunk at rooftop parties
I bought a one-way ticket down to Mexico
I've played truth or dare, I cut my hair
And I think I really like it
And I played guitar on stage at a sold-out show

You always said he's good for me
You should see the way he looks at me
'Cause honestly, you wouldn't believe

How I'm out living
Looking at the morning light like it's something I've been given
I'm out living
I don't wanna blink an eye 'cause I don't wanna miss it

You couldn't stick around, and I don't understand it now
But somehow, I know that you'd want me to
Be out living
Outliving you

I went to LAX 'cause I just felt like flying
And for the first time in a while, I laughed till I cried
I put on Night Moves like we used to
With a coffee in the morning
And I spend a hell of a lot more time outside

You always said she's good for me
We're getting married in the spring
And honestly, you wouldn't believe

How I'm out living
Looking at the morning light like it's something I've been given
I'm out living
I don't wanna blink an eye 'cause I don't wanna miss it

You couldn't stick around, and I don't understand it now
But somehow, I know that you'd want me to
Be out living
Outliving you

Holding everything like it's something I could lose
Yeah, the silver lining is something that you choose
And I know that you'd want me to

Be out living
Looking at the morning light like it's something I've been given
Yeah, I'm out living
I don't wanna blink an eye 'cause I don't wanna miss it

You couldn't stick around, and I don't understand it now
But somehow, I know that you'd want me to
Be out living
Outliving you
