I struggled with the lyrics for a long time because there was a lifetime of work to live up to and I wasn\u2019t sure what to say or how to be good enough. When it finally started pouring out of me, it was undeniable. I had no choice. It&#8217;s for all the people we\u2019ve lost, all the people who we could lose, to suicide and depression. I&#8217;m singing from the perspective of the person left behind, the person in the waiting room. It\u2019s a plea to fight for your life, to stay. Don&#8217;t give into the fear- I have to tell myself that every day. Nobody is perfect.\u00a0 We are all imperfect, and it\u2019s precisely those imperfections that make us who we are, and we have to embrace them because there\u2019s so much beauty in those differences. Life is worth fighting for.
