作词 : Ballard, Clarkin Tell me how long you will take Trying to make up your mind Maybe it's already too late I'll just be left behind For right or wrong, baby, still I hold on Don't let it burn down in flames It's a matter of survival A matter of survival that we're apart That's all we live and die for I wish someone would tell it to your heart So scared when I walk to your door I saw you turn out the light I can't take this hurt any more I shout it out to the night Living without you ain't living at all Tell me how do I get by? It's a matter of survival A matter of survival that we're apart That's all we live and die for I wish someone would tell it to your heart I walk the streets in the night I feel your spirit deep inside It comes with the darkness, stays till the light I got to face it, there's nowhere to hide It's a matter of survival A matter of survival that we're apart That's all we live and die for A matter of survival A matter of survival that we're apart That's all we live and die for I wish someone would tell it to your heart Your heart A matter of survival A matter of survival A matter of survival
