Man Against The World

Survivor · Survivor Special Selection [2000]

Have you ever walked,

alone at night,

like a Man against the world?

No one takes your side,

a boat againt the tide.

When your faith is shaken,

you start to break,

and your heart can't find the words.

Tossed upon the sand,

I give you a man,

Against the World

All the people cheer,

'til the end is near

and the hero takes a fall.

Then they'll drag you through the mud,

you're only flesh and blood.



Now I've walked the path,

from dark tonight.

And they've yet to come to terms

Alone I take my stand,

I'm only a man,

against the world.



But love, like a distant reminder,

it tugs at my shoulder,

it calls me home.

I shout, can a single voice carry,

will I find sanctuary within your arms.

Someday, when the answer's clearer,

Someday, when I even the score,

You'll reach, and you'll find me near you,

Right beside you, Forever more.



But for now,

I 'll walk in the night alone,

Like A man Against the World.

A brand new day will shine,

though the avalanche of time.

Now the road's grown long, but the spirit's strong,

And the fire within stills burns.

Alone I take my stand,

I give you a man,

Against the World.
