Lyrics

[Verse 1]
You stumble through your days
Got your head hung low
Your sky's a shade of grey
Like a zombie in a maze
You're asleep inside
But you can shake awake
[Verse 2]
'Cause you're just a dead man walking
Thinking that's your only option
But you can flip the switch
And brighten up your darkest day
Sun is up and the color's blinding
Take the world and redefine it
Leave behind your narrow mind
You'll never be the same
[Verse 3]
Come alive, come alive
Go and light your light
Let it burn so bright
Reaching up to the sky
And it's open wide
You're electrified
[Verse 4]
When the world becomes a fantasy
And you're more than you could ever be
'Cause you're dreaming with your eyes wide open
And you know you can't go back again
To the world that you were living in
'Cause you're dreaming with your eyes wide open
So come alive
[Verse 5]
I see it in your eyes
You believe that lie
That you need to hide your face
Afraid to step outside
So you lock the door
But don't you stay that way!
[Verse 6]
No more living in those shadows
You and me, we know how that goes
'Cause once you see it
Oh, you'll never, never be the same
Little bit of lightening striking
Bottled up, to keep on shining
You can prove there's more to you
You cannot be afraid
[Verse 7]
Come alive, come alive
Go and light your light
Let it burn so bright
Reaching up to the sky
And it's open wide
You're electrified
[Verse 8]
When the world becomes a fantasy
And you're more than you could ever be
'Cause you're dreaming with your eyes wide open
And you know you can't go back again
To the world that you were living in
'Cause you're dreaming with your eyes wide open
So, come alive
[Verse 9]
Come one, come all
Come in, come on
To anyone who's bursting with a dream
Come one, come all
You hear the call
To anyone who's searching for a way to break free
[Verse 10]
Come alive, come alive
Go and light your light
Let it burn so bright
Reaching up to the sky
And it's open wide
You're electrified
[Verse 11]
When the world becomes a fantasy
And you're more than you could ever be
'Cause you're dreaming with your eyes wide open
And you know you can't go back again
To the world that you were living in
'Cause you're dreaming with your eyes wide open
[Verse 12]
When the world becomes a fantasy
And you're more than you could ever be
'Cause you're dreaming with your eyes wide open
And you know you can't go back again
To the world that you were living in
'Cause you're dreaming with your eyes wide open
[Verse 13]
So come alive!
