Come Alive

Another day begins The same as yesterday Important things that must be done An early rise saves time To get you on your way The sky is black There is no sun A day with strangers Doing things for someone else Society is built this way The watching clock looks to have stopped again today Must every day be just the same? So can you see? See your life Come alive Open your eyes See your life Come alive The bright new hope is talking On the tv screen Saying things have got to change Everyone must do their bit To get things done For much too long We've been short-changed So can you see? See your life Come alive Open your eyes See your life Come alive Too many only barely alive Long daily struggle just to survive We can't go on We can't go on like this So hold your head up and keep your dreams alive Keep pushing for the day when you don't walk in the line Life is short and time won't wait for you So can you see? See your life? Come alive Open your eyes See your life Come alive
