You take the bad and they take the good
You give it up like you know you should
No explanation for things that they do
I'll wait in the shower thinking of you
And the reason I'm alive is
I survived I survived
I survived I survived

You are the victim of circumstance
You're the one who's taking a chance
I am a loner I go my own way
Nothing you can do could change my day
And the reason I'm alive is
I survived I survived
I survived I survived

Get on your feet
Don't want it no more
Pick up your bus at your door
Can't you see I'm alive I'm alive
Yes so alive I'm alive
