Come Alive lyrics

[P.T. Barnum:]

You stumble through your days

Got your head hung low

Your skies' a shade of grey

Like a zombie in a maze

You're asleep inside

But you can shake away

'Cause you're just a dead man walking

Thinking that's your only option

But you can flip the switch and brighten up your darkest day

Sun is up and the color's blinding

Take the world and redefine it

Leave behind your narrow mind

You'll never be the same

Come alive, come alive

Go and ride your light

Let it burn so bright

Reaching up

To the sky

And it's open wide

You're electrified

When the world becomes a fantasy

And you're more than you could ever be

'Cause you're dreaming with your eyes wide open

And you know you can't go back again

To the world that you were living in

'Cause you're dreaming with your eyes wide open

So, come alive!

I see it in your eyes

You believe that lie

That you need to hide your face

Afraid to step outside

So you lock the door

But don't you stay that way

[Lettie Lutz:]

No more living in those shadows

You and me we know how that goes

[Lord of Leeds:]

'Cause once you see it, oh you'll never, never be the same

[Both:]

We'll be the light that's shining

Bottle up and keep on trying

[All:]

You can prove there's more to you

[P.T. Barnum:]

You cannot be afraid

[Ensemble:]

Come alive, come alive

Go and ride your light

Let it burn so bright

Reaching up

To the sky

And it's open wide

You're electrified

When the world becomes a fantasy

And you're more than you could ever be

'Cause you're dreaming with your eyes wide open

And we know we can't be go back again

To the world that we were living in

'Cause we're dreaming with our eyes wide open

So, come alive!

Come one!

Come all!

Come in!

Come on!

[Anne Wheeler:]

To anyone who's bursting with a dream

[Ensemble:]

Come one!

Come all!

You hear

The call

[P.T. Barnum:]

To anyone who's searching for a way to break free

[Ensemble:]

Break free!

Break free!

[Ensemble and P.T. Barnum:]

When the world becomes a fantasy

And you're more than you could ever be

'Cause you're dreaming with your eyes wide open

And we know we can't be go back again

To the world that we were living in

'Cause we're dreaming with our eyes wide open

(Hey!)

When the world becomes a fantasy

And you're more than you could ever be

'Cause you're dreaming with your eyes wide open

And we know we can't be go back again

To the world that we were living in

'Cause we're dreaming with our eyes wide open

'Cause we're dreaming with our eyes wide open

So come alive! (Come alive!)
