Alive

(album: Kings & Thieves - 2011)

There are clouds on the horizon
So take a breath here in the calm before the storm
If only for a moment
Close your eyes and feel the thunder
We can't hide or run for cover anymore
It's time to take a stand together, oh

Hold on, 'cause the tide is strong
It can't erase the fire in our eyes
Let the walls break
What we have they cannot take
And if all that's left is you and me tonight
No, they won't take us alive

We dream about tomorrow
Know that hope will always come to those in need
The best of us is left
After the storm has shown his anger
And the skies have tried
To bring us to our knees
We are standing, we're still standing

So hold on, 'cause the tide is strong
They can't erase the fire in our eyes
Let the walls break
What we have they cannot take
And if all that's left is you and me tonight
No, they won't take us alive

(No, they won't take us alive)
(No, they won't take us alive)

Before the waves are over our heads, over our heads
Don't be afraid we'll make it through this, make it through this

So hold on, 'cause the tide is strong
They can't erase the fire in our eyes
Let the walls break
What we have they cannot take
And if all that's left is you and me tonight
No, they won't take us alive

And if all that's left is you and me tonight
No, they won't take us alive
