Lori Mckenna How To Survive Lyrics

How To Survive Lyrics

You knocked those pictures

Right off the wall

I slammed the bathroom door so hard

It doesn't close right at all



Last week we broke

My mother's favorite serving plate

All just casualties

Of a love that's lost it's way



Well, you and I, baby

Don't even know how to fight

We don't know nothin' 'bout nothin'

Except how to survive



How come we keep this TV

Up so loud?

What are we so afraid of

That we keep drownin' out?



Well, this is not the life

That we deserve

And talking might make it better

But what if it makes it worse?



'Cause you and I, baby

Don't even know how to fight

We don't know nothin' 'bout nothin'

Except how to survive



We take times just

Comin' out for real

Oh, and I could cry about it

But my tears don't lurk around here



Last night I caught myself

Just lookin' at you

But I only saw a stone wall

Impossible to break through



Oh, you and I, baby

Don't even know how to fight

We don't know nothin' 'bout nothin'

Oh, we don't know nothin' 'bout nothin'

Except how to survive

How to survive, how to survive
