At first I was afraid, I was petrified,
Kept thinkin’ I could never live without you by my side,
But then I spent so many nights thinkin’ how you did me wrong,
And I grew strong, and I learned how to get along

And so you're back from outer space,
I just walked in to find you here with that sad look upon your face,
I should’ve changed that stupid lock, I should’ve made you leave your key,
If I had known for just one second you’d be back to bother me

Oh now go, walk out the door,
Just turn around now, cause you’re not [bad word] anymore,
Weren’t you the one who tried to hurt me with goodbye,
You think I’d [bad word]  you think I’d lay down and die

I'm a survivor ( what),
I'm not gonna give up (what)
I'm not gon' stop (what),
I'm gonna work harder (what)
I'm a survivor ( what),
I'm gonna make it (what)
I will survive (what),
keep on survivin' (what)

Thought I couldn't breath without ya,
I'm inhalin'
You thought I couldn't see without ya,
perfect vision
You thought I couldn't last without ya,
but I'm lastin'
You thought that I would die without ya,
but I'm livin'

Thought that I would fail without ya,
but I'm on top
Thought that it would be over by now,
but it won't stop
Thought that I would self [bad word] 
but I'm still here
Even in my years [bad word] 
I'm still gonna be here

I'm a survivor ( what),
I'm not gonna give up (what)
I'm not gon' stop (what),
I'm gonna work harder (what)
I'm a survivor ( what),
I'm gonna make it (what)
I will survive (what),
keep on survivin' (what)

Oh no not I, I will survive
As long as i know how to love
I know I'll stay alive (I'm a survivor)
I've got all my life to live (Survivor)
I've got all my love to give (I'm a survivor)
And I'll survive (I'm a survivor)
I will survive (I'm a survivor)
