Feel Alive lyrics

Wake up and I rub my eyes
Look up at the orange skies
Tell myself the same old lies:
Don't worry, everything's-

Finally, I'm out the door
Though my fans are cheering for me
There's a pain I can't ignore
And it's been growing in-

Side-by-side, we watch her go
Seems her aura has a glow
Plus, on stage, she's such a pro
Show after show...

But as I
Smile with the ease
Of summer's breeze
I wonder: when will I feel alive?
Each day that's passed
Is like the last
I wonder: when will I feel alive?

Turn my thoughts away from memories that aren't forgiving
Deeper than the oceans
It's like they've been flooding my-
Mind my manners, dot my i's
Pretend that this is living
Going through the motions-
And I got the choreo down
But as I
Smile with the ease
Of summer's breeze
I wonder: when will I feel alive?
Each day that's passed
Is like the last
I wonder: when will I feel alive?

If this little song and dance
Just might help me break my trance
Or enhance my circ*mstance
I'll take that chance...

And then I'll be more at ease
Like summer's breeze
Done askin': when will I feel alive?
Storms of the past will clear at last
Done askin': when will I feel alive?

Lively, rested, and alert
Free from stress and pain and hurt-
That's what it means to feel alive!
Lively, rested, and alert
Free from stress and pain and hurt-
Won't stop until I feel alive!
