You could nev

tanding
You just fade
away
[Pre-Chorus]
Don't you know
I'm still sta
nding, better
than I ever di

Lookin' like a
true survivor
, feelin' like
a little kid
I'm still stan
ding after all
this time
Pickin' up the
pieces of my
life without y
ou on my mind
[Chorus]
I'm still stan
ding, yeah, ye
ah, yeah
I'm still stan
ding, yeah, ye

ah, yeah
[Verse 3]
Once I never
could've hoped
to win
You starting d
own the road,
leaving me aga
in
The threats yo
u made were me
ant to cut me
down
And if our lov
e was just a c
ircus
You'd be a clo
wn by now
[Pre-Chorus]
Don't you know
I'm still sta
nding, better
than I ever di

Lookin' like a
