Alive Like Me - Never Looking Back Lyrics

I never sleep
this pressure hurts my head
The thoughts of feeling like we’ll never win
I close my eyes but I’m awake thinking
Will we rise
or will we sink again?

Retrace the steps that ever lead to this
It always starts with broken promises

My eyes are red but I’m awake thinking
Now’s the time [x4]

You can’t pretend you’re not a witness
It’s time to let them know we’re in control

We’ll last if we keep marching forward
So it’s your time to stand up

We will sing this until they hear us
(no matter what they say)
And we will rise up until they fear us
(we’re never looking back)
We stand together
With strength in numbers
Side by side we are a storm that they can’t control
And we will sing this until they hear us
(we’re never looking back)

In 20 years will it still be the same
Or will our generation change the way
The world around us seems to operate
With the pain and the suffering

You can’t pretend you’re not a witness
It’s time to let them know we’re in control
We’ll last if we keep marching forward
Stand up
Because it’s up to us

We will sing this until the hear us
(no matter what they say)
And we will rise up until they fear us
(we’re never looking back)
We stand together
With strength in numbers
Side by side we are a storm that they can’t control
And we will sing this until the hear us
(we’re never looking back)

And when the dust starts to fade away
The storm has passed
Will it be the same?

Let's just hope for now they change their minds
Once they hear us sing (once they hear us sing)

We will sing this until the hear us
(no matter what they say)
And we will rise up until they fear us
(we’re never looking back)
We stand together
With strength in numbers
Side by side we are a storm that they can’t control
And we will sing this until the hear us
(we’re never looking back)
