Survive Lyrics
[Verse 1]
How long till it feels
Like the wound's finally starting to heal?
How long till it feels
Like I'm more than a spoke in a wheel?
[Pre-Chorus]
Most nights, I fear
That I'm not enough
I've had my share of Monday mornings when I can't get up
But, when hope is lost
And I come undone
[Chorus]
I swear to God, I'll survive
If it kills me to
I'm gonna get up and try
If it's the last thing I do
I've still got something to give
Though it hurts sometimes
I'm gonna get up and live
Until the day that I die
I swear to God, I'll survive
[Verse 2]
How long till you know
That, in truth, you know nothing at all?
How far will you go
To get back to the place you belong?

[Pre-Chorus]
Most nights, I fear
That I'm not enough
But I refuse to spend my best years rotting in the sun
So, when hope is lost
And I come undone
[Chorus]
I swear to God, I'll survive
If it kills me to
I'm gonna get up and try
If it's the last thing I do
I've still got something to give
Though it hurts sometimes
I'm gonna get up and live
Until the day that I die
I swear to God, I'll survive
I swear to God, I'll survive
[Chorus]
I swear to God, I'll survive
If it kills me to
I'm gonna get up and try
If it's the last thing I do
I've still got something to give
Though it hurts sometimes
I'm gonna get up and live
Until the day that I die
I swear to God, I'll survive
