Lyrics
Survivor
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Well you just think that I'm some great survivor
And you just build upon the lies that carry you
Well I don’t even talk that way
See I wanted you to stay and show you the world's a better place
And as we crawl to find our way
We even take the shape of something else
You think that I'm just
Some great survivor
You think that I'm just
Some great survivor
I'm afraid that the weight of the world is catching up with you
I'm afraid to admit that it’s catching up to me too
Well you just think that I'm some great survivor
And you just feed upon fear you created
Some people ought to see
Some peoplе ought to hear, hear
Some pеople ought to see
Some people ought to hear
Well if it's gonna be that way
Then the crowds that call your name can cast me out
You think that I'm just
Some great survivor
You think that I'm just
Some great survivor
I'm afraid that the weight of the world is catching up with you
I'm afraid to admit that it’s catching up to me too
Does the weight continue to grow until it buries you?
You think that I'm just
Some great survivor
You think that I'm just
Some great survivor
You think that I'm just
Some great survivor
You think that I'm just
Some great survivor
