Music G.Johnson, Lyrics W.Holden
About Alive
I had a demo version of the music that I recorded at home in Logic, and I sent the song to Wayne for him to come up with lyrics. I had a chorus lyric and vocal which was "Come Alive".
Wayne came up with the lyrics and melody which ended up being based around "Now I'm Coming To Life" but we all preferred to just keep calling the song Alive.
Alive, was a late entry to the album, the other guys literally learned it a week before we hit the studio.
The keyboard parts heard in the final album version are actually from the original demo that I sent Wayne.
lyrics
I might know nothing, 'bout where you're going So can you tell me, what it is that I see
Looks like a road to nowhere baby,
Taking me all the way to who knows where
(I come alive)
Now I'm coming to life – and I’m seeing right through your lies
(I come alive)
Do you think I’m gonna stand aside – While you’re taking me for a ride
Not buying the fake news, pushing me to sway
Truth is stranger than fiction, well that's what they say
If you stand for nothing baby,
You’re gonna fall for everything put in your way
(I come alive)
Now I'm coming to life – and I’m seeing right through your lies
(I come alive)
Do you think I’m gonna stand aside – While you’re taking me for a ride
Now tell me, Is there a hidden meaning? (hidden meaning)
To manipulate, the way I'm leaning
--
(I come alive)
Now I'm coming to life – and I’m seeing right through your lies
(I come alive)
Do you think I’m gonna stand aside – While you’re taking me for a ride
(I come alive)
Now I'm coming to life .......
