Songs of Scenarios (encouragement for grandma)

Give me any reason to believe
Cause i swear i'm done here
Cause i've seen the bigger picture
And i'm looking for some answers

Tell me that it's worth it
Cause i'm doing all i can to fight it
And i've never been this scared
And my moment's finally here

Time's racing
Please slow down
I' got to find my way out
I'm hopeless
But hoping
My lungs won't fail me now
Cause i'm still breathing

It's hard to be a man
But i'm doing all i can
I'm ready to give this all i have
I'm ready to be amazed
Cause i'm standing here alone
Trying to make this life my own
And nothing will keep this heart from beating
I'm still breathing

Promise me some dignity
If i were to stand and die here
Cause my heart is somewhere else
It's a pain i've never felt

Time's racing
Please slow down
I' got to find my way out
I'm hopeless
But hoping
My lungs won't fail me now
Cause i'm still breathing

It's hard to be a man
But i'm doing all i can
I'm ready to give this i have
I'm ready to be amazed 
Cause i'm standing here alone
Trying to make this life my own
And nothing will keep this heart from beating
I'm still breathing

Where do we all find love
Where do we all find love

It's hard to be a man
But i'm doing all i can
I'm ready to give this all i have
I'm ready to be amazed
Cause i'm standing here alone
Trying to make this life my own
And nothing will keep this heart from beating
I'm still breathing

Still Breathing
- Mayday Parade

This song is dedicated to my grandma who lived and is still living life without a day of peace. To her, every single waking moment is a struggle. Even though she pulled through it in her younger days, it kills me to say that she's no longer the former headstrong 25 year old that she was and now everything is just so much harder because she's older, weaker and she's getting tired. I hope that the lyrics to this song will find its way to her and help her in ways that we can't. Stay strong, po.
