Copied!edit Lyrics
original text at lyrnow.com/2001700
Intro
(Feel alive)
(Whoa)

Verse 1
Bright, million flashing lights, blinded all sides
Pose, surrounded all alone, behind blue eyes
But if he does it every night, start believing that he likes living in the eye
Seventeen with a dream, keep your heart on your sleeve
And when you blow up, you'll be the only one they believe

Chorus
Whoa, can you feel it come alive?
Don't you feel it coming alive?
Whoa, this what it's like to feel alive

Verse 2
Life, even when I die, even when I cry
Hope to see you come alive, to see you try, oh
Even after summer is dead
You'll still be closer to the stars
The hundred thousands on cars, when millions want it like ours
Want it bad enough to be dead when they push you over the edge?
I'll keep you in the back of my head and pray nobody sees when you've bled
Hold me down, don't build me up
I'm too sky high and that's enough
I can't take LA on my own
She's just too tempting, oh my

Chorus
Whoa, can you feel it come alive?
Don't you feel it coming alive?
Whoa (Stand up!)
This what it's like to feel alive (Right now!)

Bridge
Love, climb up higher and higher
Love, just keep on moving up
No more questions, don't you doubt yourself

Part II

Verse 1
Cherubim and seraphim alike
Won't someone take care of him at night?
Waking up alone is always worse than everybody says
Than everybody says
Always worse than everybody says

Verse 2
Cherubim, I'm scared of all the lights
Power in the air, I come alive
Won't be coming home, I'll stay alone like everybody says
Like everybody says
Like everybody says

Outro
Wait a minute, Owen
I think you should know
The sunset's most gorgeous right before night falls
Where do you think we're going?
It's beautiful, honey, breathe it in
And hold it, hold it, hold it, hold it
Hold it, hold it, hold it, hold it
Hold it, hold it, hold it, hold it
