Pete Yorn Alive

Sometimes it's pain Sometimes it's hollow Never the same It'll change you tomorrow The sadness Doesn't matter when it's gone

Girl in a red dress Passes you by A hurried deception Gleam to her eye Like the weather Will not hurt her when she's wrong

You say you feel all broke and discarded What's on your mind, baby? You know you'll get on well once you've started Over again

This day is alive This day is alive This day is alive

Take another chance if a turn for disaster is the best thing for you Oh, the difference is the lies I've told are true Do not tell your father the thoughts you've been thinking They'll burn him too long After all, it's the dream that holds up the sun

Yeah, you want to have something that's real Well, give it some time, baby You're all wrapped in the words you're repeating over again

This day is alive (This day is alive) This day is alive (This day is alive) This day is alive

So now you tell me what you're gonna do to me You got a lot on your mind, baby You got so much that'll get through to me Without telling me lies

You say you wanna stand up for something, alright... What's on your mind, baby Oh, you could stand here for nothing Or start it again Start it again

This day is alive (This day is alive) This moment will pass you by This day is ours, don't let it die (Die) Don't let it die (Die) Don't let it die
