We keep heading in the same direction
You've become my own reflection
Is that your soul that you're trying to protect?
I always hoped that we would intersect, yeah

You need time to cope and time to heal,
Time to cry if it's what you feel
Life can hurt when it gets too real
I can hold you up when it's hard to deal

Alive, alive,
Alive is all I wanna feel
Tonight, tonight
I need to be where you are,
I need to be where you are

Hey you, look around
Can you hear that noise? It's a rebel sound
We got nowhere else to go
And when the sun goes down, and we fill the streets,
You're gonna dance 'til the morning to the rebel's beat
You can take everything from me
'Cause this is all I need

You know that life is like a ticking clock
Nobody knows when it's gonna stop, yeah
Before I'm gone I need to touch someone
With a word, with a kiss, with a decent song, yeah

And it gets lonely when you live out loud,
When the truth that you seek isn't in this crowd
You better find your voice, better make it loud
We've gotta burn that fire or we'll just burn out

Alive, alive,
Alive is all I wanna feel
Tonight, tonight
I need to be where you are,
I need to be where you are

Hey you, look around
Can you hear that noise? It's a rebel sound
We got nowhere else to go
And when the sun goes down, and we fill the streets,
You're gonna dance 'til the morning to the rebel's beat
You can take everything from me, oh, yeah
You can take everything from me
'Cause this is all I need
