Laid down my motorbike at seventeen years old
Ridin like a chrome cowboy, young and invincible
Eighteen stitches and a busted head
Damn lucky, I didn’t end up dead
Guess we all fall down sometimes
But we survive
Skinned up knees, crazy dreams
It’s hard but we make it through
We survive
We learn to love, we learn to live
Pick ourselves up again
We survive
I haven’t always been the man that I could’ve been
Sometimes I made the bottle my best friend
Didn’t mean to hurt you, there’s nothin’ I can change
I won that fight but lost your love I’ll never be the same
Guess we all have heartache in our lives
But we survive
Broken hearts, we fall apart
It gets hard but we make it through
We learn to love, we learn to live
Pick ourselves up again
We survive
I remember seeing those 2 towers standing tall
Then crumble down that morning in early fall
We fought the good fight and we’re still hanging on
Sometimes what don’t kill us, really does make us strong
We have stand up and keep faith alive
We survive
Don’t give up, when life gets tough
It gets hard but we make it through
We learn to love, we learn to live
Pick ourselves up again
We survive
