lyrics

SURVIVOR © Dawn Barrington & Paul Coote 2014

Verse 1
Running up the lane, fear in my main, so much left to tame….I’m a survivor
Can’t see far ahead, there’s so much left to shed……….I’m a survivor (x2)

Verse 2
I’m bending over backwards to see through these eyes
Only finding dark holes their perfect in disguise
How do I feel about it? Do I feel at all? …….. I’m a survivor (x2)

Chorus
Sitting here on my sill, watching that line of pills………I’m a survivor (x2)
Glass is at half mast, boat’s leaking gotta row fast……I’m a survivor

Verse 3
Do I cave into these thoughts? Or show you the spill?
Of the water that was once half above the keel
The sun has come up eyes open wide
Nowhere left to run not much left to hide

Verse 4
The light is on my face, it’s not a perfect race………I’m a survivor (x2)
I can see the way ahead, not always full of dread……..I’m a survivor (x2)

Chorus
