Surviving

G D C A

A
Look at us here today
                     G          D
Lots of talking with nothing to say
         A
And if I seem somewhat vague
                 G          D
It's because I'm somewhat afraid

       G  D    C            A
I'm surviving, that's all I am
       G  D           C       A
I'm surviving to be a better man
       G  D    C            A
I'm surviving, that's my plan
     G  D     C            A
Just surviving

Yesterday, I was sure
But today I don't know anymore
Thought I was brave till I saw
My frightened reflection in a dark corridor

Now I'm surviving to be a better man
I'm surviving with an emotional plan
I'm surviving, so please understand
I'm surviving, surviving

B                     A
There are millions of people out there
F#m                   E
Trying to get by in a world that don't care
E                      D
People smiling through clouds of despair
   Bm                   A
Protecting the wounds until they repair

They're surviving the best way they can
They are surviving every woman and man
Just surviving with an emotion plan
So keep surviving

Maybe it's my shattered pride
That's why I get scared of emotional ties
Don't let them in, otherwise
You'll smile like a fool
But you'll be hurting inside

So I'm surviving through the insecurity
I am surviving, I got hope inside of me
So I'm smiling through all the insanity
I'm surviving, surviving

I was moved by the way that you said
Don't be afraid, I won't leave you for dead
You took my soul and mixed up my head
You left me alive you should have killed me instead

Now I'm surviving, that's all I am
I'm surviving to be a better man
I'm surviving, that's my plan
I'm surviving, surviving
Surviving
