Survive
Diva Destruction Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

How did i let you, tempt me once again, how
Did I get into such a mess with you, your
Greatest secret was my private hell, but you'll
Escape once more, as I pay for it all!!
I may beg now but later it's you, i'll forget you in
The end, cause this won't ever last at all, I'll
Survive you, i've survived worst, so don't flatter
Yourself too much, if they only knew, the other
Side of you, you're more guilty than i could ever




Be, but you always lie better than my thruth!!
And they only hear, whatever they want to!!

Overall Meaning

The lyrics to Diva Destruction's "Survive" allude to a toxic situation with someone who has repeatedly tempted and betrayed the singer. The singer seems to be aware of the other person's manipulative behavior and their ability to escape consequences for their actions. The line "your greatest secret was my private hell" suggests that the other person had a significant hold over the singer and possibly used personal information to control or harm them. Despite this, the singer declares that they will survive this situation and move on from it, stating "I've survived worst, so don't flatter yourself too much."


There is a sense of anger and frustration in the lyrics, particularly in the line "you're more guilty than I could ever be, but you always lie better than my truth." This suggests that the other person has successfully manipulated others into believing a false narrative and perhaps even painted the singer as the villain in the situation. However, the singer seems determined to stand up for themselves and move forward, regardless of what others may think or say.


Overall, "Survive" is a song about resilience in the face of betrayal and manipulation. The singer acknowledges the pain and hardship they have experienced, but ultimately declares that they will not be defeated by this person and will find a way to move on and thrive.

The first time I had heard this song I had goosebumps because the lyrics were very relevant to a ghastly experience I had with someone who was cyber hacking and stalking me. I couldn't even have told his friends who knew me since they were friends with him longer than me because I knew they wouldn't have believed me. To make it worse law enforcement where I live does not regard such matters seriously.
"But you'll escape once more, as I pay for it all"
He had asked for us to be friends after he was done using me sexually sometimes and stringing me along that we'd be together. Despite how I wanted us to be together I respected his wish. Then he went cold and ignored me.
"I may beg now but later it's you, I'll forget you in the end"
Months after he tried to get on good terms with me, I stood my ground after realising his game and refused to play. Then the hacking started and it grew worse. He would leave secret messages inside my Facebook in little statuses set to "only me". I got paranoid, shut every social media platform down and even got rid of my phone cause I knew he was monitoring me from time to time via google location since he knew my number.
But I survived it all.

I'm so sorry to hear that you went through all that. You really understand my lyrics. Venting through art is very healing and writing my songs was very healing for me. That is really tough when no one would believe you if they even knew. I get it. I've been there. Many of my songs, such as "Hate You to Love You" and "My Turn", are also about when those tables turn. Take care.
