Next To Normal - I'm Alive (feat. Aaron Tveit) Lyrics

Gabe:
I am what you want me to be,
And I'm your worst fear-
You'll find it in me.
Come closer...
Come closer...

I am more than memory-
I am what might be,
I am mystery.
You know me-
So show me.

When I appear it's
Not so clear if
I'm a simple spirit
Or I'm flesh and blood...

But I'm alive,
I'm alive,
I am so alive,
And I feed on the fear
That's behind your eyes.

And I need you
To need me
It's no surprise-
I'm alive...
So alive...
I'm alive.

I am flame and I am fire,
I am destruction,
Decay and desire-
I'll hurt you...
I'll heal you...

I'm your wish,
Your dream come true,
And I am your darkest
Nightmare too-
I've shown you...
I own you.

And though you made me,
You can't change me-
I'm the perfect stranger
Who knows you too well.

And I'm alive,
I'm alive,
I am so alive,
And I'll tell you the truth
If you let me try.

You're alive,
I'm alive,
And I'll show why
I'm alive...
So alive...

I'm alive-
I'm right behind you.
You say forget,
But I remind you.
You can try to hide,
You know that I will find you.
'Cause if you won't grieve me
You won't leave me behind...

Ah, ah, ah,
Whoa, oh, oh,
Whoa, oh, oh...
No, no, no-
I'm alive,
I'm alive,
I am so alive,
If you climb on my back,
Then we both can fly.

If you try to deny me
I'll never die-
I'm alive...
So alive...
I'm alive...
Yeah, yeah...
I'm alive...
I'm alive...
I'm alive...
I'm alive!
