Lyrics[]

How do you turn a sinking ship
That's been taking you down with it?
The whole world stops
And drops you like a nothing
How do you make amends
For all the goodbyes that might've been?
Do you brush it off?
Do you cash it in?
Do you just bite your lip and try it again?

Cause I'm much too young
To settle for what's been done
I've seen it all
Living through the fall
Has taken me higher
Cause the smoke is gonna clear
Blue skies are gonna reappear
And I'll be standing here
I'll be standing here
Soul survivor

You gotta know where to look
To see the scars and the pain that it took
For me to find the other side
Where the things that I lost were still worth the fight

Cause I'm much too young
To settle for what's been done
I've seen it all
Living through the fall
Has taken me higher
Cause the smoke is gonna clear
Blue skies are gonna reappear
And I'll be standing here
I'll be standing here
Soul survivor

Some scars take courage
And some tears are brave
Some nights I wonder
Why I'm the one who is saved, oh

Cause I'm much too young
To settle for what's been done
I've seen it all
Living through the fall
Has taken me higher, oh
Cause the smoke is gonna clear
Blue skies are gonna reappear
And I'll be standing here
I'll be standing here
Soul survivor
And I'll be standing here
I'll be standing here
Soul survivor
I'll be standing here
I'll be standing here
Soul survivor
