Norah Jones - I'm Alive lyrics

Just sit and wait, don't move just hesitate
You can hope and pray you can moan
Maybe things will change

You feel your soul get hollowed out
While the world implodes
You just live without

She walks, she runs she fights almost as one
And finds her voice she’ll march
She has no choice

She's crushed by thoughts at night of men
Who want her rights and usually win

But she's alive oh, she’s alive
She's alive oh, she's alive

He screams, he shouts
The heads on the TV bow they take the bait
They mirror waves of hate

They break down walls to free their sins
And then their hearts come caving in

Oh, I watch, I think i dance
And sometimes I drink i sing my songs
I'll hope someone sings along

If I should break my silent streak
Will knives come out to cut my cheeks?

Oh, I'm alive yes, I'm alive
But, I'm alive oh, I'm alive
I’m alive oh, I’m alive
Yes, I'm alive yes, I’m alive

I care a lot i know the things I'm not
It's alright, it's okay
And it’s not, maybe things will change
