I see the picture clearer now and the fog has been lifted The wall you tried to pull over my eyes was clever, yeah you're gifted But you forgot to dot some I's and cross some t's along the way I'm better now despite you, baby I'm stronger these days, stronger I survived the crash Survived the burn Survived the worst Yeah baby, but i've learned Survived the lies Survived the blues It almost killed me But i survived the truth And the best is when the smoke cleared trough I survived you I can look in the mirror now, it's been a slow awakening Blinded by a heart full of you I couldn't help mistakening But you could ever care for anyone Anyone but yourself But you would have to have a conscience, baby Good luck, i wish you well, wish you well I survived the crash Survived the burn Survived the worst Yeah baby, but i've learned Survived the lies Survived the blues It almost killed me But i survived the truth And the best is when the smoke cleared trough I survived you This heart has been torn in two, cut and bruised With too many bitter endings I'll be damned if i have thoughts of you raining down on my new beginning! Survived the lies Survived the blues It almost killed me But i survived the truth And the best is when the smoke cleared trough I survived you
