How we survive, PTSD on the side
They know we fly, that’s why they envy our lives
How we survive, PTSD on the side
They know we fly, that’s why they envy our lives
How we survive, PTSD on the side
They know we fly, that’s why they envy our lives
How we survive, PTSD on the side
They know we fly, that’s why they envy our lives

Thought I had a leader
He was a deceiver
Caused a lot of grief I
Can’t afford a breather
Prayed that you would be alive
Long enough to see it die
And watch me on the frontline
Promise it’ll be worth your while
Raised to believe we were all
Same but it proved to be wrong
They said we’ll never belong
Hold that thought, I won’t be long

Side by side, we will cross these lines
And if it ever goes sour, we will shine beyond those lights
Side by side, we will climb these walls
And if it needs to fall down, it would be by design

Who’s gonna be dead to get you aroused
Now you so upset that you blacking out
Help me figure out what you lot about
Talk about changes, like you ain’t noticed how
Everybody looked like you in your workplace
That’s why you using words like… in your office
Unchallenged, that’s how you love it, just enough for profits
Still you are so insecure
Raised to believe we were all
Same but it proved to be wrong
They said we’ll never belong
Hold that thought, I won’t be long

Side by side, we will cross these lines
And if it ever goes sour, we will shine beyond these lights
Side by side, we will climb these walls
And if it needs to fall down, it would be by design

How we survive, PTSD on the side
They know we fly, that’s why they envy our lives
How we survive, PTSD on the side
They know we fly, that’s why they envy our lives
