"Alive" lyrics

Flashes of doubt that grow into rage
Locked out the truth, they keep your dreams at bay
Don't stand and wait for the time to come
Come on, come on, catch me, we got miles to run

We are alive, the skin is leavin' these bones
Fly in the wind, we're burnin' out of control
We are the children chasin' wondrous things
Chasin' a vision, baby, like we're runnin' downhill
Oh

We tear these curtains open, feel the light
Swim to the surface, laid our alarms at night
Slip past the guards before they raise their guns
Come on, come on, catch me, we got miles to run

We are alive, the skin is leavin' these bones
Fly in the wind, we're burnin' out of control
We are the children chasin' wondrous things
Chasin' a vision, baby, like we're runnin' downhill
Hey

Someday this body's gonna call for rest
But not till the very last beat of my chest
These hills take longer than we think it does
So I'll get used to livin' with my feet off the ground

(Runnin' downhill)
We are alive, the skin is leavin' these bones
Fly in the wind, we're burnin' out of control
We are the children chasin' wondrous things
Chasin' a vision, baby, like we're runnin' downhill
Oh
(Runnin' downhill...)
(Runnin'...)
