| Never in all my life
|
| Have I seen eyes as empty as
|
| These streets of my city on a Saturday night
|
| But the green of your eyes say go
|
| Leave it all behind
|
| But I don’t need to be reminded a change is gonna come
|
| I can feel it on the tip of your tongue
|
| And I feel alive, feel alive
|
| We met up once we settled the sun
|
| Between the heat and the work week
|
| The fear is we could use some sleep
|
| But sleep to the superfluous man means better use for beds
|
| And I’ll bet I’m coming home alone tonight
|
| I don’t need to be reminded that this is how it was
|
| I moved on, I passed a billboard down my block
|
| It asked if I had enough, and aloud I’ll say «I had too much»
|
| When the truth is, I’m just getting started
|
| Now all the barlights are blinking in time
|
| To Mexican music it’s taunting the pavement
|
| And I feel alive, I feel alive
|
| I feel alive
|
| One of us sings and one of us drinks
|
| And one of us does nothing at all
|
| So they call us all sheep
|
| Well I’m the Little Bo Peep of the bunch
|
| And he swears he’s gotta take this call
|
| I’m scared he’s gonna leave us too soon
|
| We were the get-rich-quick kids, we never got it right
|
| So we settled for the center of town
|
| Where all the rich white kids is out looking for a fight
|
| Got the blonde one staring me down
|
| And I really wanna take a swing
|
| I can’t help but remember James Dean
|
| See we are part of the few who agree
|
| That hey, he lived life fast, but he died
|
| He died, he died
|
| Me, I’m gonna live forever
|
| (I feel alive)
|
| I think I’m gonna live forever
|
| (I feel alive)
|
| I know I’m gonna live forever
|
| Now all the barlights are blinking in time
|
| To Mexican music, it’s taunting the pavement
|
| And for the first time, in a long time
|
| I feel alive
|
| Now all the barlights are blinking in time
|
| To Mexican music, it’s taunting the pavement
|
| And for the first time, in a long time
|
| I feel alive
|
| Now all the barlights
|
| To Mexican music
|
| Oh, I feel alive, I feel alive
|
| And for the first time, in a long time
|
| I feel alive, I feel alive |
