The Graduate - I Survived lyrics

This is goodbye After months of situating I can finally leave this sorry town behind And I'm alright When they ask for me My friends can smile and tell the world That I survived As I'm about to leave I've filled a million empty pages Pa**ed my word and do my best to sing So what do I need Something could become of those Who think and talk and live like me I don't want to die today I want to live and love and write it down I can live a life of dreams And be grateful I'm around This is goodbye After months of careful planning I can finally leave this dried up town behind And I'm alright Yeah, this used to be our city This used to be our only light I just want to walk away I want to write but there's a consequence That all my friends read everything I do and I say I don't need a razorblade All I need are sounds of ecstasy And I won't die today Yeah, I'll be living, loving, writing down And I'll live a life of dreams And be grateful I'm around
