about

This is a version of No Through Road’s song, PARTY TO SURVIVE. The original song can be found at this link: www.youtube.com/watch?v=QavFlUyaPfY

I’ve loved this song for many a year, it always seems to be playing at precisely the right time. I first saw No Through Road by accident after months of unintended mishaps that had me miss seeing them, on this night I went for a beer after a particularly disagreeable day. The room was packed and coincidentally I found myself surrounded by a pack of mates. Almost immediately, Party to Survive was announced and launched into, I was mesmerised and– whatever part of my spirit that had been plundered by the day was immediately replaced.

All instrumentation by Garrett R. Cooper
Lyrics by Matt Banham (No Through Road)

lyrics

PARTY TO SURVIVE

I feel overwhelmed in here so I head towards the door, where the smoke and the screams can’t get to me
But after one cold minute, I crave for even more and make my way back in, even further deep
Cause there’s nothing like the darkness when it’s getting light outside, and you’ve lived so much that you forget to breathe
So don’t end this night, I need to feel alive. No don’t end this night, I need to party to survive
And as my vision gets all blurry, my thoughts they stay inside and nothing but a smile gets to me
But I wanna keep on going, on and on and on till I know I’ve got nothing left to see
So don’t end this night, I need to feel alive. No don’t end this night, I need to party to survive
