Look out your window
There's a city on fire
If you could just know
Every moment your at home
The ashes keep on getting higher
But I'll let you go
Take your time and I'll remind
You your lucky to be breathin'
While the bodies sleeping on the roads
Will never stop their dreamin'
Ill believe in you
If you believe in me
Together we can make the change
As small as it may seem
Together we can build
A home where everyone can feel
Sad and mad and happy
And one day we will be
Alive and well
With smiles on all our faces
Out of the shelves
That kept us in our places
We've got a story to tell
But when we speak our heartbeat races
Someday we'll be alive and well
You and I
Turn off the t.v. set
Get it out of the room and start
Doing something about
All these people you've never met
It seems so strange to humans
That there's more of us outside
These walls fall into your debt
Always paying your life back
For the lessons you've avoided
Just so you'd get
Your happy sappy endings
But never really new beginnings with someone
I believe in you
Will you believe in me
Can we make a difference
And some possibility
Far too big to build
A home where everyone can feel
Sad and mad and happy
Because we'll never be
Alive and well
With smiles on all our faces
Out of the shelves
That kept us in our places
We've got a story to tell
Of when we speak our heartbeat races
Someday we'll be alive and well
You and I
Children crying
Why is there no one listening
I said there's children dying
Someone please start trying
Why is no one listening
Aren't we supposed to do something
Alive and well
With smiles on all our faces
Until were out of the shelves
That kept us in our places
We've got a story to tell
But when we speak our heartbeat races
Someday we'll be alive and well
You and I
Alive, Alive,
You and I
Alive, Alive,
You and I
