Lyric discussion by mumblecoreeee 

i think this song could about preforming sober for the first time in a long time. i think the first verse is her saying how scared she is to preform sober. i think the title is referring to her really feeling and being "alive" without drugs.

and perhaps the lines.

"If my life is mine What shouldn't I do? I get wherever I'm going I get whatever I need While my blood's still flowing And my heart still beats.. "

are about drug use and how she's asking why does it matter if she does drugs because she's still living and breathing.

I think this song is more about the experience of feeling alive when your exposed from your personal safety net, whatever that might be to you.

There is a freedom of taking risks, if only for the moment, and your body responds to that of your heart, metaphorically and literally.

I def agree with this interpretation bc when I heard it that's what I thought, too. I mean she's asking if the person is still alive. Like she's checking their pulse and status.
