Survive
The Harlequin Lyrics

Given a chance you know she might go far
If given the opportunity, she has the potential to achieve a lot

Cause she knows how to dress,
She has a good sense of style

She's a hit in the bar
She is popular and well-liked in social settings

She learned how to dance
She has developed a skill for dancing

And how to read the stars
She is knowledgeable about astrology

Or whatever it takes, no matter how hard
She is willing to work hard and do what it takes to succeed

Oh, somehow, we all gotta find a way to survive now
We need to figure out how to keep going in difficult times

Somehow, we all gotta find a way to survive
We need to find a way to keep living despite challenges and obstacles

She's hot on the trail of a superstar
She is pursuing someone famous and successful

She wants to ride on his wave
She wants to benefit from his success

She wants to be on his car
She wants to be associated with him and his lifestyle

Oh, and later tonight if she does her job
If she performs well, as expected

She keeps his mind on her head
She occupies his thoughts

She'll find her name on the charts
She will become successful and well-known herself

Look out for yourself you're really not gavotte
You need to take care of yourself because no one else will

So I take care of myself, I could show you the scars
The artist has learned this lesson from personal experience

Whoever it is, no matter who you are
This advice applies to everyone

There's that fine looking face
Attractive appearance can be an advantage

You've got impossible sound
You have a unique and impressive voice

To keep us alive
The goal is to stay alive and keep going

Oh, whoa, whoa
Vocalization to enhance emotion

Just a way to survive
The song is about the struggle to keep going in difficult times
