Lyrics

[Verse 1]
I've seen a man today
Eating from a bin
And as he salvages
Anything he can
I suspect
Regret to recollect
Now he's living in
A bottle like a model ship wreck
[Verse 2]
Where does he come from?
Where will he go?
A face without a name
Survival
[Verse 3]
The sun sets and it rises
Rainbows lie on the horizon
(Survival) A band of ghosts'll find it
But the rest will just keeps on surviving
Survival
[Verse 4]
I've seen a girl tonight
Fixing her tights
And as she wonders
Under the street lights
I'm certain
This is where she works well
Night falls
Like a theater curtain
[Verse 5]
Where does she come from?
Where will she go?
Until the break of dawn
Survival
[Verse 6]
The sun sets and it rises
Rainbows lie on the horizon
(Survival) A band of ghosts'll find it
But the will rest just keeps on surviving
Survival
[Verse 7]
I knew a family girl
She now talks to herself
But I remember when
She worked every hour of godsends
All she wanted
Was to be successful
Round and round
She went into the business carousel
[Verse 8]
Where does she come from?
Where will she go?
Is this madness
Or just survival?
[Verse 9]
The sun sets and it rises
Rainbows lie on the horizon
(Survival) A band of ghosts'll find it
But the rest will just keeps on surviving
Survival
[Verse 10]
The sun sets and it rises
Rainbows lie on the horizon
(Survival) A band of ghosts'll find it
But the rest will just keeps on surviving
Survival
Survival
Survival
