"Thrive" is the seventh track on Switchfoot's eighth album, Vice Verses.

Lyrics
Been fighting things that I can’t see in Like voices coming from the inside of me and Like doing things I find hard to believe in Am I myself or am I dreaming?

I’ve been awake for an hour or so Checking for a pulse but I just don’t know Am I man if I feel like ghost? The stranger in the mirror is wearing my clothes

No I’m not alright I know that I’m not right The steering wheel don’t mean you can drive A warm body doesn’t mean I’m alive No I’m not alright I know that I’m not right Feels like I travel but I never arrive I want to thrive, not just survive

I come alive when I hear you singing But lately I haven’t been hearing a thing and I get the feeling that I’m in between A machine and a man who only looks like me

I try and hide it and not let it show But deep down inside me I just don’t know Am I man if I feel like a hoax? The stranger in the mirror is wearing my clothes

No I’m not alright I’m always close but I’m never enough I’m always in line but I’m never in love I get so down but I won’t give up I get slowed down but I won’t give up

Been fighting things that I can’t see, yeah Like voices coming from the inside of me, yeah Like doing things I find hard to believe in Am I myself or am I dreaming? I want to thrive, not just survive Thrive
