Empire of the Sun – Alive

This song describes losing one's vision at a certain point during the awakening, the visual becomes confused, because the only way to re-discover reality is to look inward. The future is inside of us.

Days go by my window
World slows down as it goes
Goodbye to last night
Lost my eyesight
Can't you help me see
(They won’t get right)

Loving you every minute cause you make me feel so alive, alive
Loving you every minute cause you make me feel so alive, alive, alive, alive

Waking in the snow
Tracing steps with you
Swimming through the smoke
Wrapped in velvet gold
Can't you help me see
(They won’t get right)

Can you describe to me
All the world that you see?
Oh, I need you so much,
I’ll just wait

Freedom is within you
Giving makes us feel good
Hello to our people
Say hello to the future
Freedom is within you
Giving makes us feel good
Hello to our ṗeople
Say hello to the future
 

Loving you every minute cause you make me feel so alive, alive
Loving you every minute cause you make me feel so alive, alive, alive, alive
