When I ran from the hounds of hell Twist my foot, I nearly fell I was lucky I was alive One look back I could have died I was the sole survivor, sole survivor Sole survivor, solitary fighter When I saw it I was amazed One time glory right in my gaze I saw the sorrow, I saw the joy Right in the darkness none could destroy I am the sole survivor, sole survivor Sole survivor, solitary fighter And from the wreckage I will arise Cast the ashes back in their eyes See the fire, I will defend Just keep on burning right to the end I'll be the sole survivor, sole survivor Sole survivor, sole survivor, sole survivor Sole survivor, sole survivor, sole survivor Sole survivor, sole survivor, sole survivor
