lyrics

Survival Of The Sickest

Don't it make you wanna scream,
Been this way since seventeen.
Still no-one can explain the reason why,
Why the sun don't shine on me.

No, the sun won't shine on me, oh,
The stars, they just won't let me be, no.
And they still won't cross, though,
I try so hard to move them.

Every time it comes around,
I find myself,
Falling way back underground.

You ask me where I've been, and I say,
Well, baby, I've survived, woah-oh.
You ask me what I've done, and I say,
I've just about managed to stay alive.
You ask me where I've been, and I say,
Well, baby, I've survived, woah-oh.

All the charts say I'm alive,
The so-called, kamikaze who survived.
The very picture of a fallen angel,
Who's had his wings clipped all his life.

When you've had your wings clipped all your life,
The planets just don't coincide.
And the map that's on your,
Hand it just can't save you.

Every time it comes around,
I find myself,
Falling way back underground.

You ask me where I've been, and I say,
Well, baby, I've survived, woah-oh.
You ask me what I've done, and I say,
I've just about managed to stay alive.
You ask me where I've been, and I say,
Well, baby, I've survived, woah-oh.

Their most recent 4-song EP "heartstopper" was released in July of 2019.
