Surviving Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Don't hide your face
What you were before
Doesn't have to be
You anymore
Maybe you've been scared
And that's what you know
And all the shame
Gonna call you home
It's gonna call you home

[Verse 2]
It never was your fault
But still a part to play
You carry it so close
You can read its name
In a lot of ways
You're still that lost kid
Yeah, you can still survive
But not exactly live
No, not exactly live

[Verse 3]
Gonna stand this ground
Gonna say it loud
Never define yourself
By choices others make
If no one said it yet
It would be a shame
That ends right now
You're not alone in pain
Never alone in pain
[Outro]
Never alone in pain
Never alone in pain
Never alone in pain

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Type out all lyrics, even repeating song parts like the chorus
  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]
