I Survived You

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!

I survived the crash

Survived the burn

Survived the worst

Yeah baby, but i'v' 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
