[Verse 1]
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

[Chorus]
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

[Post-Chorus]
I`m still standin` (Yeah, yeah, yeah)
I`m still standin` (Yeah, yeah, yeah)

[Verse 2]
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

[Chorus]
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

[Post-Chorus]
I`m still standin` (Yeah, yeah, yeah)
I`m still standin` (Yeah, yeah, yeah)

[Chorus]
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

[Post-Chorus]
I`m still standin` (Yeah, yeah, yeah)
I`m still standin` (Yeah, yeah, yeah)

[Outro]
I`m still standin` (Yeah, yeah, yeah)
I`m still standin` (Yeah, yeah, yeah)
I`m still standin` (Yeah, yeah, yeah)
I`m still standin` (Yeah, yeah, yeah)
