I opened up my eyes
Swear I saw the light
Don't you know the truth
It's so very hard to find
Tell me, does it feel good
Tell me, does it feel right
I'm singing (singing)
I'm singing (singing)
I'm singing, singing simple song

Some things die to stay alive

The tears we cry
We'll drink them some time
Yeah, I'm happy to feel this way
Don't know another way
Happy to feel that I'm right
Oh yes the only thing that gets me through the night
I'm not scared 'cause I know I will survive
That's right, that's right,
That's right, that's right

And mercy has its place,
I know I've made mistakes
Please open those arms
Fill me with your grace
Tell me does it feel good
Tell me does it feel right
I'm singing (singing)
I'm singing (singing)
I'm singing, singing simple song

Some things die, to stay alive

The tears we cry
We'll drink them some time
Yeah, I'm happy to feel this way
Don't know another way
Happy to feel that I'm right
Oh yes, the only thing that gets me through the night
I'm not scared 'cause I know I can survive
That's right, that's right
That's right

Yeah, I'm happy to feel this way
You know I don't know another way
(Yes, I know I can survive)
Yeah, I'm happy to feel this way
('Cause I know I can survive)
'Cause I don't know another way
('Cause I know I can survive)

Oh my, my, my, my, my
Yeah, come on
Oh mymymy…
Yeah, I know, I can survive
Yeah, yeah, alright 
Yes I know, I will survive
