At first I was afraid, I was petrified Kept thinking I could never live without you by my side But then I spent so many nights thinking 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 have changed that stupid lock, I should have made you leave your key If I'd known for just one second you'd be back to bother me Go on now, go, walk out the door Just turn around now 'Cause you're not welcome anymore Weren't you the one who tried to hurt me with goodbye Do you think I'd crumble Did you think I'd lay down and die?
Oh no, not I, I will survive Oh, as long as I know how to love, I know I'll stay alive I've got all my life to live And I've got all my love to give and I'll survive I will survive, hey, hey
It took all the strength I had not to fall apart Kept trying hard to mend the pieces of my broken heart And I spent oh-so many nights just feeling sorry for myself I used to cry But now I hold my head up high and you see me Somebody new I'm not that chained-up little person and still in love with you And so you felt like dropping in and just expect me to be free Well, now I'm saving all my lovin' for someone who's loving me Go on now, go, walk out the door Just turn around now 'Cause you're not welcome anymore Weren't you the one who tried to break me with goodbye Do you think I'd crumble Did you think I'd lay down and die?
Oh no, not I, I will survive Oh, as long as I know how to love, I know I'll stay alive I've got all my life to live And I've got all my love to give and I'll survive I will survive
Oh Go on now, go, walk out the door Just turn around now 'Cause you're not welcome anymore Weren't you the one who tried to break me with goodbye Do you think I'd crumble Did you think I'd lay down and die?
Oh no, not I, I will survive Oh, as long as I know how to love, I know I'll stay alive I've got all my life to live And I've got all my love to give and I'll survive I will survive I will survive
lol It probably got picked up by Google. With Valentine's day nearly here, I bet a lot of people are looking for reminders of why they should be glad to be free and clear of their former loves.
Hey, Google people- join the site and add more songs! lol
P!nk is awesome. I don't usually listen to regular music but I do enjoy her music. (Censored of course)
What is interesting is the guy she wrote this song about is now her husband and they have a few kids.

I hate myself for loving you and the weakness that it showed You were just a painted face on a trip down to suicide road The stage was set, the lights went out all around the old hotel I hate myself for loving you and I'm glad the curtain fell.
I hate that foolish game we played and the need that was expressed And the mercy that you showed to me, whoever would have guessed I went out on Lower Broadway and I felt that place within That hollow place where martyrs weep and angels play with sin.
Heard your songs of freedom and man forever stripped Acting out his folly while his back is being whipped Like a slave in orbit he's beaten 'til he's tame All for a moment's glory and it's a dirty, rotten shame.
There are those who worship loneliness, I'm not one of them In this age of fiberglass I'm searching for a gem The crystall ball upon the wall hasn't shown me nothing yet I've paid the price of solitude but at least I'm out of debt.
I can't recall a useful thing you ever did for me 'Cept pat me on the back one time when I was on my knees We stared into each other's eyes 'till one of us would break No use to apologize, what difference would it make ?
So sing your praise of progress and of the Doom Machine The naked truth is still taboo whenever it can be seen Lady Luck who shines on me, will tell you where I'm at I hate myself for loving you but I should get over that.
