I look outside the memory 
And wait for life to start 
I tell myself in secret 
Now you know just who you are 

Been waiting in the shadows 
With many wars to fight 
All this will be different 
And the world I know will make some sense tonight 

I don't need you to save my soul 
I found the place I'm supposed to go 
Running free like the change of tide 
I'm so alive, so alive, alive 

I walk into the open 
The streets are breakin wide 
I thought I'd never reach out 
But I never really tried 

Maybe I'm only dreaming 
None of this is true-to-life 
I'll just keep on sleeping 
Smile at everyone and dive into the light 

I don't need you to save my soul 
I found the place I'm supposed to go 
Running free like the change of tide 
I'm so alive, so alive, alive
