How long till it feels
Like the wound's finally starting to heal?
How long till it feels
Like I'm more than a spoke in a wheel?

Most nights, I fear
That I'm not enough
I've had my share of Monday mornings when I can't get up
But, when hope is lost
And I come undone

I swear to God, I'll survive
If it kills me to
I'm gonna get up and try
If it's the last thing I do
I've still got something to give
Though it hurts sometimes
I'm gonna get up and live
Until the day that I die
I swear to God, I'll survive

How long till you know
That, in truth, you know nothing at all?
How far will you go
To get back to the place you belong?

Most nights, I fear
That I'm not enough
But I refuse to spend
my best years rotting in the Sun
So, when hope is lost
And I come undone

I swear to God, I'll survive
If it kills me to
I'm gonna get up and try
If it's the last thing I do
I've still got something to give
Though it hurts sometimes
I'm gonna get up and live
Until the day that I die
I swear to God, I'll survive
I swear to God, I'll survive

I swear to God, I'll survive
If it kills me to
I'm gonna get up and try
If it's the last thing I do
I've still got something to give
Though it hurts sometimes
I'm gonna get up and live
Until the day that I die
I swear to God, I'll survive
