Surviving
Sondr Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
But there's a million things
That keep you up at night
Until the morning
You see the light
Why does it blind you
When instead it should have filled
Don't look down
I understand this life can make you feel
Like you are falling under
We won't drown
There's always time to sing a song
And walk along this road together
You got it wrong
We're living life
We're all surviving
All surviving
You got it wrong
We're living life
We're all surviving
All surviving
How many times
Have I found you here
With sadness in your eyes
Don't you remember
That every life
Has a story
That is full of broken ends
And new beginnings
Don't look down
I understand this life can make you feel
Like you are falling under
We won't drown
There's always time to sing a song
And walk along this road together
You got it wrong
We're living life
We're all surviving
All surviving
You got it wrong
We're living life
We're all surviving
All surviving
The lyrics of Sondr's song "Surviving" convey a message of hope and perseverance in the midst of adversity. The first verse speaks to the struggle of overthinking and anxiety, with the singer acknowledging that even when we try to shut out our worries and fears, they can still keep us up at night. The second verse offers a larger commentary on the human experience and how we all have our own struggles and hardships, but even amidst those difficulties, there are moments of light and beauty if we choose to see them. The chorus repeats the message that despite the challenges of life, we are all "surviving" and living our lives to the fullest.
The song is ultimately about leaning on others for support during difficult times, as highlighted in the lines "There's always time to sing a song and walk along this road together." The message is one of resilience and the idea that even when life knocks us down, we can pick ourselves up and keep going.
Overall, "Surviving" is a hopeful and uplifting song that encourages listeners to keep pushing forward, even when life gets tough.
