Come Alive

As a story of a life zooms out from my mind
I’ve come to realize that we’re just but a million kinds
A piece of dust – lost souls in the wind
Do our lifetimes end before they begin

I’m so happy – I’m so gay
All is well – that ends well

Come alive – she said to me
I’m alive – you wanna be
Come alive – she said to me
I’m alive alone

Wake up – wake up
Wake up and live – wake up and breathe
And burn mother – burn , burn

A toe tag ends the tale of a life insignificant
Or so they say in the news today
Smiling faces – live for the moment
But before you know it
They’ll be reading off the tag on your toe
