Surviving — текст песни (Kinks)

Look at us here today

Lots of talking with nothing to say

And if I seem somewhat afraid

Im surviving, thats all I am

Im surviving to be a better man

Im surviving, thats my plan

Just surviving



Yesterday, I was sure

But today I dont know anymore

Thought I was brave till I saw

My frightened reflection in a dark corridor

Now Im surviving to be a better man

Im surviving with an emotional plan

Im surviving, so please understand

Im surviving, surviving



There are millions of people out there

Trying to get by in a world that dont care

People smiling through clouds of despair

Protecting the wounds until they repair

Theyre surviving the best way they can

They are surviving every woman and man

Just surviving with an emotion plan

So keep surviving



Maybe its my shattered pride

Thats why I get scared of emotional ties

Dont let them in, otherwise

Youll smile like a fool

But youll be hurting inside

So Im surviving through the insecurity

I am surviving, I got hope inside of me

So Im smiling through all the insanity

Im surviving, surviving



I was moved by the way that you said

Dont be afraid, I wont leave you for dead

You took my soul and mixed up my head

You left me alive

You should have killed me instead

Now Im surviving, thats all I am

Im surviving to be a better man

Im surviving, thats my plan

Im surviving, surviving

Surviving
