THE NEAL MORSE BAND - Alive Again lyrics
rate meFeat. Mike Portnoy
(Verse 1: at 05:00 minutes)
You called me forth beneath the waves and wayward waters
That kind of trust I've never felt, I've always wound up sinking down
Was I really dead and at the bottom of the ocean?
Stay the course, I heard you say, but all I saw was the lone wave down
(Chorus)
Now I feel like I'm alive again!
Spread my arms upon the open wind
Yeah, I feel like I'm alive again!
Crashing waves like breath upon my skin
(Verse 2)
The wounded warrior has to temporary shelter
Chasing down an enemy that always lurked inside of me
Finally he killed what he had come to think his quarry(?!)
The man who's heart was like the sea was gone and he will never be found
(Chorus)
(Bridge 1)
I can see the light burning in my soul
I can see the light, I know that I must go!
(Guitar solo)
(Verse 3: at 10:35 minutes)
King of Surprise and the Boredom Queen
Went out to dine at the bottom line!
Drinking blood red wine!
The Jack of all Trades and The Master of None
Set out to get back at most everyone!
It's not too late (to get free)
There's something more (you used to see)
Get back to (where you used to be!)
(Interlude)
Fly away, lost in a place of dreaming
I wanna hide away, gone forever
Fly away far from the silent screaming
I wanna hide away, gone forever
(Verse 4)
The dollars of extinct ratchet rage
Pull the sword from the stone like ______(?)
As the king of day (goes insane)
Where the Pope of Rome (meets the Pope at Rome)
And the nicotine stand (goes unexplained)
(Interlude)
(Verse 5: at 17:02)
Locks on a box holding inside
The face in the mirror seems to disguise
The boy at the door, who I was before
Is more than I'll ever be
The sun kissed the day, I was well on my way
I'd love to just love you but I've no time today
The man that I saw, who could stand on the sea
Was more than I'd ever be
(Bridge 2)
Sometimes, in the dark night at my soul
In the corner of my life, I see the man inside
Morning again, the sun shining in
The boy from the sad side, no chance to win
Just walk through the door through to something much more
More than I'll ever be!
Sometimes, in the dark night at my soul
From the corner of my eyes, I see the man inside
Now I find he is making my dreams alive
In the brightest of my day, I can see the man (I see the man)
I can see the man inside!
(Guitar solo)
(Verse 6)
The wounded warrior with no temporary shelter
Has lost his will to stand and fight to the enemy that lives inside
Now he's on the run because the king of angel armies
Has come to bring the dead to life
And cleanse the darkness with the light
I feel I've come alive again
Search for arms upon the open wind
Yeah, I feel I've come alive again
Never going back to where I've been
(Bridge 1)
I can see the light burning in my soul
I can see the light, I know that I must go!
I must go!
