Of Mice & Men – How To Survive lyrics

[Verse 1]
They look down from their ivory tower
At a world they never really knew
They light their torches and draw their arrows
They're on the hunt, and tonight the prey is you

[Pre-Chorus]
But I can show what it's like

[Chorus]
What it's like to be hated
What it's like to be degraded
What it's like to be a target
But have skin as thick as steel
I'll show you how to bring chaos
I’ll show you how to be dangerous
In a world that teaches an eye for an eye
I'll show you how to survive, oh

[Verse 2]
And now you've seen from behind the veil
Kings, knights and pawns all bleed the same
I refuse to be one of the fallen
I refuse to be one of the slain

[Pre-Chorus]
And I can show what it's like

[Chorus]
What it's like to be hated
What it's like to be degraded
What it's like to be a target
But have skin as thick as steel
I'll show you how to bring chaos
I’ll show you how to be dangerous
In a world that teaches an eye for an eye
I'll show you how to survive, oh

[Bridge]
I'll show you how to survive
In a world that teaches an eye for an eye
I'll show you how to survive
I'll show you how to survive, yeah
I refuse to be one of the fallen
I refuse to be one of the slain

[Pre-Chorus]
But I can show what it's like

[Chorus]
What it's like to be hated
What it's like to be degraded
What it's like to be a target
But have skin as thick as steel
I'll show you how to bring chaos
I’ll show you how to be dangerous
In a world that teaches an eye for an eye
I'll show you how to survive
