Surviving Lyrics - Kinks

Look at us here today 

Lots of talking with nothing to say 

And if I seem somewhat vague 

It's because I'm somewhat afraid 

I'm surviving, that's all I am 

I'm surviving to be a better man 

I'm surviving, that's my plan 

Just surviving 

Yesterday, I was sure 

But today I don't know anymore 

Thought I was brave till I saw 

My frightened reflection in a dark corridor 

Now I'm surviving to be a better man 

I'm surviving with an emotional plan 

I'm surviving, so please understand 

I'm surviving, surviving

There are millions of people out there 

Trying to get by in a world that don't care 

People smiling through clouds of despair 

Protecting the wounds until they repair 

They're surviving the best way they can 

They are surviving every woman and man 

Just surviving with an emotion plan 

So keep surviving 

Maybe it's my shattered pride 

That's why I get scared of emotional ties 

Don't let them in, otherwise 

You'll smile like a fool 

But you'll be hurting inside 

So I'm surviving through the insecurity 

I am surviving, I got hope inside of me 

So I'm smiling through all the insanity 

I'm surviving, surviving 

Photos 

I was moved by the way that you said 

Don't be afraid, I won't leave you for dead 

You took my soul and mixed up my head 

You left me alive 

You should have killed me instead 

Now I'm surviving, that's all I am 

I'm surviving to be a better man 

I'm surviving, that's my plan 

I'm surviving, surviving
