[Verse 1]
Seventeen trying to be a hero
Pulled up her skirt in the mirror
Hop in the back turn the corner
It was too dark to see the water
Lying down in the backroom
All of the lines that shes used to
All of the rides that shes used to

[Chorus]
It was alive but it used you
It was alive but it used you
It was alive but it never used to
There was a time when you knew
So show me a sign if its you
Show me a sign if its you

[Verse 2]
You could stay i could come and find you where you are
Whenever you play you always go too far
To the river to the edge of the water
Lights turned off in the back of the car
Water in the street, rain in your eye
I could see the tear but i never heard your cry
They see you turning know
Their words always let you down
[Chorus]
It was alive but it used you
There was a time when you knew
Show me a sign if its you
Show me a sign if its you
Show me a sign if its you
It was alive in you
It was alive in you
