    I don't want to live forever?

    I just want to die?

    I don't want to be alive??

    The music video was directed by Andy Hines and centers around a young man who struggles with feeling accepted due to his sexuality.

    I've been on the low
    I been taking my time
    I feel like I'm out of my mind
    It feel like my life ain't mine
    Who can relate?
    I've been on the low
    I been taking my time
    I feel like I'm out of my mind
    It feel like my life ain't mine
    I don't wanna be alive
    I don't wanna be alive
    I just wanna die today
    I just wanna die
    I don't wanna be alive
    I don't wanna be alive
    I just wanna die
    And let me tell you why
    All this other **** I'm talkin' 'bout they think they know it
    I've been praying for somebody to save me, no one's heroic
    And my life don’t even matter
    I know it, I know it, I know I'm hurting deep down but can’t show it
    I never had a place to call my own
    I never had a home
    Ain't nobody callin' my phone
    Where you been? Where you at? What's on your mind?
    They say every life precious but nobody care about mine
    I've been on the low
    I been taking my time
    I feel like I'm out of my mind
    It feel like my life ain't mine
    Who can relate?
    I've been on the low
    I been taking my time
    I feel like I'm out of my mind
    It feel like my life ain't mine
    I want you to be alive
    I want you to be alive
    You don't gotta die today
    You don't gotta die
    I want you to be alive
    I want you to be alive
    You don't gotta die
    Now lemme tell you why
    It's the very first breath
    When your head's been drowning underwater
    And it's the lightness in the air
    When you're there
    Chest to chest with a lover
    It's holding on, though the road's long
    And seeing light in the darkest things
    And when you stare at your reflection
    Finally knowing who it is
    I know that you'll thank God you did
    I know where you been, where you are, where you goin'
    I know you're the reason I believe in life
    What's the day without a little night?
    I'm just tryna shed a little light
    It can be hard
    It can be so hard
    But you gotta live right now
    You got everything to give right now
    I've been on the low
    I been taking my time
    I feel like I'm out of my mind
    It feel like my life ain't mine
    Who can relate?
    I've been on the low
    I been taking my time
    I feel like I'm out of my mind
    It feel like my life ain't mine
    I finally wanna be alive (finally wanna be alive)
    I finally wanna be alive
    I don't wanna die today (hey)
    I don't wanna die
    I finally wanna be alive (finally wanna be alive)
    I finally wanna be alive (oh)
    I don't wanna die (no, I don't wanna die)
    I don't wanna die
    (I just wanna live)
    (I just wanna live)
    Pain don't hurt the same, I know
    The lane I travel feels alone
    But I'm moving 'til my legs give out
    And I see my tears melt in the snow
    But I don't wanna cry
    I don't wanna cry anymore
    I wanna feel alive
    I don't even wanna die anymore
    Oh I don’t wanna
    I don’t wanna
    I don’t even wanna die anymore

    Looks like it is "about" 4 minutes, 10 seconds. Hope this helps.
