Sole Survivor
Treat Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

The night was young in the heat of July
There was magic in the air
He saw the fire burn across the sky
But didn't feel no fear

They said: run, boy, run!
There's a million to one
You'll make it out of here
Run, boy, run!
It's the prime of your life
So you better beware
We're watching every move you make
Follow every step you take

The sole survivor
Don't need no alibi
Sole survivor
Breaking the ice

They say heaven helps them who help themselves
No one to catch your fall
And the dream you lost will never disappear
You gonna get it all

Run, boy, run!
You'll be the light in the dark
And the hero tonight
Run, boy, run!
You got a reason to live
And no reason to fight
We're watching every move you make
Follow every step you take

The sole survivor
Don't need no alibi
The sole survivor
Breaking the ice

Sole survivor

The sole survivor
You don't need no alibi
The sole survivor
Breaking the ice

Sole survivor
You don't need no alibi
The sole survivor
Breaking the ice

It's gonna break the ice




Yeah!
Breaking the ice
