Lyrics

ALIVE

I still remember
That Sunday morning
The dream was still in my head
And I could taste the moment
The very moment
When I knew I could understand

And I never felt more alive
A feeling deep inside
I've waited all my life
To feel alive

Another illusion
Stands before me
And doesn't even say a word
Talking without speaking
Hearing without listening
I know this must sound absurd

And I never felt more alive
A feeling deep inside
I've waited all my life
To feel alive

I realize how to survive
Only this time it's in my mind

And I never felt more alive
A feeling deep inside
I've waited all my life
To feel alive

So many great things going on with this song! Vocals are great. Guitar Effects are great! TWISTS, TURNS, SURPRISES. For certain Market potential all day long!
