Survive (2)

Whatever happened to you
The one that was so beautiful
And I could count on you
To make my life a little brighter/lighter

I always thought
That you were built to last
But I never saw anything
Fall apart so fast

You were born in freedom
To be a slave to your inhibition
Inventing excuses
And proving the right
To back up your condition

But a soul like that ain't tied too tight
And it's liable to scatter
All over the night

Seasons change
And some people get old and die
Great cities are built up
And torn down
But I see you're still alive
Seasons change
And some people get old and die
Great cities are built up
And torn down girl
So how could you survive with me
How could you survive

I'm not asking for much
Only for time to stop
And history to go unrecorded
And people not to be people
People not to be people
People not to be people
People not to be people not to be
