Survive Lyrics - Hall & Oates

Whatever happened to you 

The one that was so beautiful 

I could count on you to make my life a little brighter

But I never saw anything fall apart so fast 

You were born in freedom 

To be a slave to your inhibitions 

Inventing excuses and proving the right to back up your condition 

But a soul like that ain't tied too tight 

And it's liable to scatter all over the night

Great cities are built up and torn down 

But I see you're still alive

Some people get old and die 

Great cities are built up and torn down 

So how could you survive

Only for time to stop 

And history to go unrecorded 

And people not to be people 

People not to be people 

People not to be people 

People not to be people not to b
