Half past three and I can't sleep, called up a friend
The other side of the world, so the timing is thin
The lighting was dim, we're FaceTiming again
And then she asked me how I'm doing
I said"same as I've always been
Trying to take one day at a time
Same as I always have
I'm trying not to die and I'm trying to stay fit"
Reminisce for a bit, catching up on what we missed
She's study abroad, studying law
She asked me if I've found me a job, well
Still looking for a reason to stay
Twenty-four hours in a day, I found no way
In 365 days, pictures tell a thousand words, so they say
Well I could be the same picture in the same frame
Unchanged
It's been a year
And I'm still here
Used to smile more back then
Lend me an ear and I'd talk it off, any pain I'd walk it off
Watch it transform like an Autobot, Optimus
In my prime I was the optimist, now the opposite
I'm still that weird kid
Hiding in his room, waiting for it soon
Think the world is ending when I'm bored
All my friends are growing old, getting married, true adults
She said"didn't what's-his-face just pledge into a cult?"
Well he did, but still on average, got their lives together more
I still get nervous just driving to the store
Same as I always have
Same as I've always been
Same place on a different day
It's been a year
And I'm still here
It's 4AM, I can't believe the hype
Staring at blue light, and I'm wide awake
Trying to find my place, but I just hide away
It's always been this way
But she always knew exactly what to say
When I start to overthink, I'm getting overwhelmed
I think of the worst that could occur to myself
She told me to breathe and see the moment's gone, it's
The one thing that keeps you holding on, it's, yeah
She said"I can see the change
How the world is nowadays, it's one day at a time"
But I asked"how will I make it through each day
Without you by my side?"
She said"Same as you always have
Same as you've always been
Same as you always have
Same as you've always been"
It's been a year
And I'm still here (I'm still here I'm still here)
It's been a year
And I'm still here (I'm still here I'm still here)
Same as I always have
Same as I've always been
Same as I always have
Same as I've always been
Same as I always have
Same as I've always been
Same as I always have
Same as I've always been
