The High Price Of Surviving

There's been mistakes and there'll be again

We'll fall from grace every now and then

Loving and losing from pillar to post

The things we hold dear can hurt us the most

It's just the price of surviving we pay

For sticking it out through another day

But it's better than taking the other way out

Ghosts at the table, junkmail and trash

I bury myself in cigarette ash

I draw the curtain, there ain't much to see

The world moves along and forgets about me

It's just the price of surviving we pay

For sticking it out through another day

But it's better than taking the other way out

Hope carry me now

Hope carry me now

It's gonna take us the long way around

It's just the price of surviving this life

Learning to breathe through the trouble and strife

When living is only being alive

Then it's just the price of surviving we pay

For sticking it out through another day

But it's better than taking the other way out

The other way out
