Trying to Survive

Lyrics
[Intro] Oh oh
Hm-mm
Lord knows I'm moving
[Verse 1] Gravel popping underneath these tires
Another lonely mile
I pull the weight of every trial
Tossing cold wind
Cutting through the cotton
Maybe I won't be forgotten
Maybe I won't be the same
Face without a name
[Pre-Chorus] Mountain peaks are tall
Looking down on me
Told to stand so proud
Told to set it free
[Chorus] One day at a time
Trying to survive
Trying to survive
Moving through the grey
One day at a time
Trying to survive
Trying to survive
In the mess of the day
[Post-Chorus] Keep moving
Hey hey
Keep moving
[Verse 2] Sunup
Red on the ridge line
Long road stretches
A world of bitter catches
Mistakes
Worn like a ragged jacket
Kept the racket
Your mind
Your body
Your soul
Wanting to be whole
Seeking something new
Found me found you
[Pre-Chorus] River running deep
Underneath the bridge
Hard to get some sleep
Hiding on the ridge
[Chorus] One day at a time
Trying to survive
Trying to survive
Moving through the grey
One day at a time
Trying to survive
Trying to survive
In the mess of the day
[Post-Chorus] Keep moving
Hey hey
Keep moving
[Bridge] Path that you took
Path that I took
Left side or the right
Morning fog or heat of the night
We are here now
That was no error
Through the hope and the terror
Every breath we take
Is a brand new song
Strong
Strong
[Chorus] One day at a time
Trying to survive
Trying to survive
Moving through the grey
One day at a time
Trying to survive
Trying to survive
In the mess of the day
[Hook] Move it on
I keep moving
Keep moving on
