lyrics

Was it he who held his own tongue,
never asking where he came from?
Oh survival it can do you wrong,
oh survival it can do you wrong.
Was it me who held him all along?

Was it she who held her own tongue,
never telling where he came from?
Oh survival it can do you wrong,
oh survival it can do you wrong.
Was it me who held her all along?

She's got no salvation but this moment,
she don't have a prayer but for a song,
she's got no religion but to know what is right and what is wrong.
She knows her salvation is this -

Was it she who held her own tongue?
Was it he who held his own tongue?
Was it me who held them all along?

I've got no salvation but this moment,
I don't have a prayer but for a song,
I've got no religion but to know what is right and what is wrong.
I've got no salvation but this very moment -

I know that my blood, it is the water,
I know that my mind, it is the sky,
I know that my tongue, it speaks the truth, and without we'll die.
I know my salvation is this -

It was she who held his own tongue.
It was he who held his own tongue.
Oh survival is a living song,
but survival it can do you wrong.
Oh survival is this living song.
