Feeling Alive

(album: Play - 2016)

I've never been a bleeder
Rarely a compete-r
I'm not the big boss
Always weighing the cost

I'm a man I'm not a ghost
I'm a guest without a host
My story isn't sterile
Been on both sides of the barrel

I'm not beating my chest
Or claiming I'm the best
But tonight I know what I could be

Tonight I won't stand still
Even if the cannons fire
I'm humble by your side

Tonight I won't stand still
Even if we don't survive
I'm humble at your side

And I'm feeling alive

Hey!

Lift your hands up high
Reach up to the sky
Let voices sing together
Watch the sound multiply

Lift your hands up high
Reach up to the sky
Let voices sing together
Watch the sound multiply

Hey!

Ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh
And I'm feeling alive
Ooh ooh ooh

Don't say that I'm a leader
Don't call me senorita
Don't offer me a light
I need someone who can fight

I'm not a champion
I don't want to be superman
Never stood behind a cause
Or said "hold the applause"

I must confess
I've been a man without a quest
But I heard my gut say
It's your time to play

So tonight I won't stand still
Even if the cannons fire
I'm humble by your side

Tonight I won't stand still
Even if we don't survive
I'm humble at your side

So lift your hands up high
Reach up to the sky
Let voices sing together
Watch the sound multiply

Lift your hands up high
Reach up to the sky
Let voices sing together
Watch the sound multiply

Hey!

Ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh
I'm feeling alive
Ooh ooh ooh

Nobody's got the answers
So I'm changing my plans because
I've fallen on my face
While just standing in place

When it's all said and done
If we've lost or won
I'll know I am not a faker
I'm a "I know what's at stake-r"

I've said
Just about
All I can say
There's just one act left in this play

Play!

Ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh
And I'm feeling alive
Ooh ooh ooh

So lift your hands up high
Reach up to the sky
Let voices sing together
Watch the sound multiply

Lift your hands up high
Reach up to the sky
Let voices sing together
Watch the sound multiply

Lift your hands up high
Reach up to the sky
Let voices sing together
Watch the sound multiply
And I'm feeling alive
