  • Feeling like a hero, but I can't fly
    No, you never crash if you don't try
    Took it to the edge, now I know why
    Never gonna live if you're too scared to die
    Gonna disconnect from the hardwire
    Time to raise a flag for the ceasefire
    Staring down the hole inside me
    Looking in the mirror
    Making peace with the enemy

    Hey hey-ey-ey (hey)
    Hey hey-ey-ey
    I'm so alive, I'm so alive, I'm so alive
    You can make it on a wish if you want to
    You can make it on a wish if you want to
    I'm so alive, I'm so alive, I'm so alive (hey)
    You can make it on a wish if you want to
    You can make it on a wish if you want to

    Open up my heart like a shotgun
    Blinded by the light of a new sun
    Get up, get up, get out and get done
    For the first time I feel like someone
    Breaking down the walls in my own mind
    Keeping my faith for the bad times
    Get up, get up, stand like a champion
    Take it to the world
    Gonna sing it like an anthem

    Hey hey-ey-ey (hey)
    Hey hey-ey-ey
    I'm so alive, I'm so alive, I'm so alive (hey)
    You can make it on a wish if you want to
    You can make it on a wish if you want to
    I'm so alive, I'm so alive, I'm so alive (hey)
    You can make it on a wish if you want to
    You can make it on a wish if you want to

    I am no man of steel
    I have no heart of stone
    Don't tell me how it feels
    I'll find it on my own

    (Hey hey-ey-ey)
    Never gonna live if you're too scared to die

    I'm so alive, I'm so alive, I'm so alive (hey)
    You can make it on a wish if you want to
    You can make it on a wish if you want to
    I'm so alive, I'm so alive, I'm so alive (hey)
    You can make it on a wish if you want to
    You can make it on a wish if you want to

    I'm so alive, I'm so alive, I'm so alive Writer/s: DEREK FUHRMANN, GREGG WATTENBERG, JOHN RZEZNIK
