Lyrics Survivor - Half Life

This thing we call an existence, I stand here

Trying to make some sense of it all,

Each pathway offers resistance, I force a smile

But its just not from the heart,

Im wrong for the part --

And I work like a dog to get even, take my chances

And go on believin, though deep in my heart I dream

Of brakin away

*are we all livin a half-life,

No point of dimension,

Trying to find our way,

Do we search in the dark,

You and i, livin a half-life,

Beyond our pretension,

Were much the same

We search for the spark*

Behind the smoke screen around me,

There beats a heart that is simple dreams that are mine --

Were only here for a moment, we try and capture the magic

Somehow in time, we make it all rhyme

And we work like a dog to get even, take our chances

And go on believin, though deep in our hearts we dream

Of breakin the chains

(* repeat)

And I work like a dog to get even,

Take my chances and go on believin

Though deep in my heart I dream of breakin away,

(* repeat)
