Alive Songtext
von Pete Yorn

Sometimes it′s pain, sometimes it's hollow
Never the same, it′ll change you tomorrow
The sadness doesn't matter when it's gone, oh
Girl in a red dress passes you by
Hurried deception gleam to her eye
Like the weather, and I hurt her when she′s wrong, oh

You say you feel all broke and discarded
What′s on your mind, baby?
You know you get on well once you start it
Over again

This day is alive
This day is alive
This day is alive

Take another chance if a turn for disaster's
The best thing for you
All the difference is the lies I′ve told are all true, oh
She'll tell you follow the thoughts you′ve been thinking
They'll burn too long
After all, it′s the dream that holds up the sun


Yeah, you wanna have something that's real, well
Give it some time, baby
You're all wrapped in the words you′re repeating
Over again

This day is alive
This day is alive
This day is alive

So now you tell me what you′re gonna do to me
You got a lot on your mind, baby
You've got so much doubt, get through to me
Without telling a lie

You say you wanna stand up for something, alright
What′s on your mind, baby?
Or you could stand here for nothing
Or start it again
Start it again, oh

This day is alive
This moment passed you by
This day is ours, don't let it die
Don′t let it die
Don't let it die
