And if I seem somewhat vague
So I'm surviving through the insecurity
That's why I get scared of emotional ties
Yesterday, I was sure
People smiling through clouds of despair
You took my soul and you mixed up my head
It's because I'm somewhat afraid
I'm surviving, surviving
You'll smile like a fool but you'll be hurting inside
I'm surviving to be a better man
They are surviving every woman and man
Just surviving with an emotion plan
Surviving
Now I'm surviving to be a better man
I'm surviving to be a better man
But today I don't know anymore
Thought I was brave till I saw
My frightened reflection in a dark corridor
I'm surviving, that's all I am
I'm surviving, that's my plan
I was moved by the way that you said
There are millions of people out there
I'm surviving, that's my plan
Trying to get by in a world that don't care
I'm surviving, surviving
Just surviving
Maybe it's my shattered pride
You left me alive, you should have killed me instead
Don't let them in, otherwise
Don't be afraid, I won't leave you for dead
Surviving
Surviving
So keep surviving
I am surviving, I got hope inside of me
I'm surviving, surviving
I'm surviving with an emotional plan
They're surviving the best way they can
I'm surviving, so please understand
Now I'm surviving, that's all I am
So I'm smiling through all the insanity
Protecting the wounds until they repair
