Take Us Alive

Lyrics

[Verse 1] A simple bit of conversation All we ever do is talkin' It starts in our imagination And we hid it all in the end [Pre-Chorus] Go tell everyone to tell everyone This ride has begun This gun is locked and loaded Don't try this at home We warned everyone Hold the paint and run [Chorus] I feel like time stands still when we're all alone We make the sparks set fire and then watch it grow And if the stars burn out, you know we'll still glow Like it's the last night we'll ever have And they'll never take us alive Like it's the last night we'll ever have And they'll never take us alive [Verse 2] I think I had a revelation The only thing left to stop us Is a little bit of hesitation And we all know it's pretend [Pre-Chorus] Go tell everyone to tell everyone This ride has begun This gun is locked and loaded Don't try this at home We warned everyone Hold the paint and run [Chorus] I feel like time stands still when we're all alone We make the sparks set fire and then watch it grow And if the stars burn out, you know we'll still glow Like it's the last night we'll ever have And they'll never take us alive They'll never take us alive Like it's the last night we'll ever have And they'll never take us alive [Bridge] You've been down in the dead sea We can get high if you let me Like the day that you met me Take a deep breath— let's see Let me take this snowflame, I can make it bigger Tell me how it feels with your finger on the trigger Take that shot, fire effortlessly And my body we lit is two bodies could be Now you're strapped in, in control You want everything we missed before I got everything we missed and more So run to me while they run for cover tonight And we could have it all Yeah we could have it all [Chorus] I feel like time stands still when we're all alone We make the sparks set fire and then watch it grow And if the stars burn out, you know we'll still glow Like it's the last night we'll ever have And they'll never take us alive Time stands still when we're all alone We make the sparks set fire and then watch it grow (Watch it grow) And if the stars burn out, you know we'll still glow Like it's the last night we'll ever have And they'll never take us alive
