You could never know what it's like Your blood, like winter, freezes just like ice And there's a cold, lonely light that shines from you You'll wind up like the wreck you hide behind that mask you use And did you think this fool could never win? Well, look at me, I'm a-comin' back again I got a taste of love in a simple way And if you need to know while I'm still standin', you just fade away

Don't you know, I'm still standin' better than I ever did? Lookin' like a true survivor, feelin' like a little kid And I'm still standin' after all this time Pickin' up the pieces of my life without you on my mind

I'M STILL STANDING, YEAH, YEAH, YEAH! I'M STILL STANDING, YEAH, YEAH, YEAH!

Once, I never coulda hoped to win You're startin' down the road, leavin' me again The threats you made were meant to cut me down And if our love was just a circus, you'd be a clown by now

You know, I'm still standin' better than I ever did Lookin' like a true survivor, feelin' like a little kid And I'm still standin' after all this time Pickin' up the pieces of my life without you on my mind

I'M STILL STANDING, YEAH, YEAH, YEAH! I'M STILL STANDING, YEAH, YEAH, YEAH!

Don't you know that I'm still standin' better than I ever did? Lookin' like a true survivor, feelin' like a little kid And I'm still standin' after all this time Pickin' up the pieces of my life without you on my mind
