Alive
Lyrics:
[English]
Come here and don't say never 'cause that's a real long time
I've been asking around and tryna find a way to see my sign
It's not long 'til you're meant to be here, but you won't show up
I know that you're mad at me and our history
Says take it slow
I'll wait while the sun goes down and leaves this town
And encases me in the blackness
In the dark where all the bad thoughts come
Alive, alive, alive, alive, alive
I just wanna be alone with you tonight
To save me from myself
You know you're something else
You make me feel alive
...
Find me, I'll be the one with glitter on my eyes
You fill me up with hope, then leave, and act surprised
I don't feel great, I just wanted you to stay
(Please, stay)
I'll wait while the sun goes down and leaves this town
And encases me in the blackness (in the blackness)
In the dark (the dark) where all the bad thoughts come
Alive, alive, alive, alive, alive
I just wanna be alone with you tonight
To save me from myself
You know you're something else
You make me feel alive
...
Alive, alive, alive, alive, alive
I just wanna be alone with you tonight
...
Alive, alive, alive, alive, alive
I just wanna feel something, is that alright? Yeah
To save me from myself
You know you're something else
You make me feel alive
Alive, alive, alive, alive, alive
I just wanna be alone with you tonight
...
