Come up screaming    Come up screaming    I've never seen you look like this without a reason    Another promise fallen through    Another season passes by you    I never took the smile away from anybody's face    And that's a desperate way to look    For someone who is still a child       In a big country dreams stay with you    Like a lover's voice fires the mountainside    Stay alive       I thought that pain and truth were things that really mattered    But you can't stay here with every single hope you had shattered    I'm not expecting to grow flowers in a desert    But I can live and breathe    And see the sun in wintertime       In a big country dreams stay with you    Like a lover's voice fires the mountainside    Stay alive    Stay alive       So take that look out of here it doesn't fit you    Because it's happened doesn't mean you've been discarded    Pull up your head off the floor—come up screaming    Cry out for everything you ever might have wanted    I thought that pain and truth were things that really mattered    But you can't stay here with every single hope you had shattered       I'm not expecting to grow flowers in a desert    But I can live and breathe    And see the sun in wintertime       In a big country dreams stay with you    Like a lover's voice fires the mountainside    Stay alive    Stay alive    Stay alive
