Stay Alive
[Chorus]
There’s a rhythm in rush these days
Where the lights don’t move and the colors don’t fade
Leaves you empty with nothing but dreams
In a world gone shallow, in a world gone lean

[Verse 1]
There’s some things a man cannot know
The gears won’t turn and the leaves won’t grow
There’s no place to run and no gasoline
The engine won’t turn
And the train won’t leave
The engine won’t turn and the train won’t leave

[Refrain]
But I'll stay with you tonight
Hold you close ‘til the morning light
And in the morning watch a new day rise
We’ll do whatever just to stay alive
We’ll do whatever just to stay alive

[Verse 2]
Well the way I feel is the way I write
It isn't like the thoughts of the man who lies
We found truth and it’s on our side
Dawn is coming, open your eyes
Oh, dawn is coming, open your eyes
[Refrain]
But I will stay with you tonight
Hold you close ‘til the morning light
We found truth and it’s on our side
Dawn is coming, open your eyes
Oh dawn is coming, open your eyes
Oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh
Dawn is coming, open your eyes
Oh dawn is coming, open your eyes
Oh dawn is coming, open your eyes
Oh dawn is coming, open your eyes

[Chorus]
There’s a rhythm in rush these days
Where the lights don’t move and the colors don’t fade
It leaves you empty with nothing but dreams
In a world gone shallow, in a world gone lean
But we've got a truth and it’s on our side
Dawn is coming, open your eyes
