"Alive" lyrics

We're living on a hill
Miles from the sea
Come on baby, feed the wind
Steady with the breeze
The world could trade you in
Just give into the beat
Tease each other
Lay together underneath the trees

Our ceiling is a bed full of stars
We could talk about how tiny we all are
Gotta live before we're back to the start
I can feel it deep down in my soul

I'm alive
I'm gonna kick off my shoes
Reconnect with the earth
Feel the sun warming my veins
I'm alive
I wanna speak my mind
Feel the heat in your eyes
Give it everything I've got
While I'm alive, while I'm alive

Everybody dies
Not everybody lives
The river only flows between the coffin and the crib
Everybody takes
Not everybody gives
The system could be broken
If you'd loosen up your lips

We wrestle with the hands of time
But you won't confine the grand design
When your heart is hanging open wide
You're free to follow what you already know

I'm alive
I'm gonna kick off my shoes
Reconnect with the earth
Feel the sun warming my veins
I'm alive
I wanna speak my mind
Feel the heat in your eyes
Give it everything I've got
While I'm alive, while I'm alive

Aren't you scared of what you're missing
If you never meet yourself
All these mindless stimulations
Just getting in the way

I'm alive
I'm gonna kick off my shoes
Reconnect with the earth
Feel the sun warming my veins
I'm alive
I wanna speak my mind
Feel the heat in your eyes
Give it everything I've got
While I'm alive, while I'm alive
