Well my life is worth nothing to some
While to others I am number one.
And it can be so hard to know
When to try, when to give up and go
Now this feeling is reeling me in
I can feel it like it was my skin
In my head I repeat a new rule
Pain is easy, pleasure is cruel
* I tell you only the strongest will survive
These days you've got to kill yourself just to stay alive
Well there's only one life and you know
It won't take you where you want to go
Yesterday was a walk in the park
But tomorrow is a step in the dark
And my life is worth nothing to some
But to you I hope I am number one
In my head I repeat a new rule
Pain is easy, pleasure is cruel
[ * ]
only the strongest will survive
These days you've got to kill yourself just to stay alive
Everybody's talking like they want to see the party begin
I'll be in the alley, get a taxi, cos I'm staying in
While to others I am number one.
And it can be so hard to know
When to try, when to give up and go
Now this feeling is reeling me in
I can feel it like it was my skin
In my head I repeat a new rule
Pain is easy, pleasure is cruel
* I tell you only the strongest will survive
These days you've got to kill yourself just to stay alive
Well there's only one life and you know
It won't take you where you want to go
Yesterday was a walk in the park
But tomorrow is a step in the dark
And my life is worth nothing to some
But to you I hope I am number one
In my head I repeat a new rule
Pain is easy, pleasure is cruel

only the strongest will survive
These days you've got to kill yourself just to stay alive
Everybody's talking like they want to see the party begin
I'll be in the alley, get a taxi, cos I'm staying in
