In the back of the van across Ohio Trying hard to fake a smile Even if this dream is coming to an end 'Cause like a flash in the pan I'm out of style Didn't go the extra mile Waited for those fifteen minutes to begin The doors were closing all around me till I opened up my eyes Now it feels like I'm alive for the first time Yeah it feels like I'm alive for the first time Rising up like a phoenix in the summer Everything in technicolor All my troubles in the rear view far behind So call your friends and call your brothers Lets be good to one another And meet me down at Ninth and Ash on Tuesday Night Because I've been waiting for this moment so it comes as no surprise Now it feels like I'm alive for the first time Yeah it feels like I'm alive for the first time For the first time Yeah it feels like I'm alive I want to live, no there's nothing that I won't give To be back in the place where I belong, we got one more song I want to breathe, feel the ground underneath my feet Let the wind fill the space between my lungs Taste it on my tongue 'Cause I've been waiting for this moment so I'm gonna get it right Yeah it feels like I'm alive for the first time
