Hugh Jackman - Come Alive lyrics

[Verse 1: 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 awake [Pre-Chorus: P.T. Barnum] ‘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 [Pre-Chorus: P.T. Barnum] Come alive, come alive Go and light your light Let it burn so bright Reaching up To the sky And it's open wide You're electrified [Chorus: 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 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! [Verse 2: P.T. Barnum] 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 will be the light that's turning Bottle up but keep on shining [All] You can prove there's more to you [P.T. Barnum] You cannot be afraid [Pre-Chorus: Ensemble] Come alive, come alive Go and light your light Let it burn so bright Reaching up To the sky And it's open wide You're electrified [Chorus: Ensemble] 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! [Ensemble] 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! [Chorus: 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!) [Chorus: 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 [Outro: Ensemble and P.T. Barnum] ‘Cause we're dreaming with our eyes wide open So come alive! (Come alive!)
