González, José - Stay Alive Lyrics






There's a rhythm in rush these days
Where the lights don't move and the colors don't fade
Leaves you empty with nothing but dreams
In a world gone shallow, in a world gone lean

Sometimes there's things a man cannot know
For gears won't turn and the leaves won't grow
There's no place to run and no gasoline
Engines won't turn and the train won't leave
Engines won't turn and the train won't leave

I will stay with you tonight
Hold you close 'til the morning light
In the morning watch a new day rise
We'll do whatever just to stay alive
We'll do whatever just to stay alive

Well the way I feel is the way I write
It isn't like the thoughts of the man who lies
There is a truth and it's on our side
Dawn is coming, open your eyes
Look into the sun as the new days rise

And I will wait for you tonight
You're here forever and you're by my side
I've been waiting all my life
To feel your heart as it's keeping time
We'll do whatever just to stay alive

Dawn is coming, open your eyes
Dawn is coming, open your eyes
Dawn is coming, open your eyes
Dawn is coming, open your eyes

Look into the sun as the new days rise

There's a rhythm in rush these days
Where the lights don't move and the colors don't fade
Leaves you empty with nothing but dreams
In a world gone shallow, in a world gone lean
There is a truth and it's on our side
Dawn is coming, open your eyes
Look into the sun as the new days rise

    Por mas de 2 años me negue a escuchar esta cancion porque me recordaba a alguien a quien le habia jurado acompañar y amar por lo que me quede de vida, pero yo no era la persona que ella amaba.

    To me years later reading this.

  49. M.... O....

    this song = my life

  50. A.... B....

    Day in day out same thing work eat sleep. So easy to fall in depression all you have to do is watch the news and listen to your friends complain how miserable their lives are. I may not have that many friends but I have God and I'm excited about ended this life on this planet whenever he's ready I am.

    A.... B....

    Hilarious, wasting his life in misery awaiting with excitment its end. Just good that in death you wouldnt mind God and afterlife being just a fairytale told by manipulative people to keep the desperate masses calm and from breaking out of misery, finally making life itself enjoyable for everyone ... lucky for you when turning into worm food you will be free of regret and disappointment.

  51. S.... ....

    La perfection, ou comme je l'ai appellée dans un lapsus, la perversion, nous rappelle, si elle est notre référence, à chaque erreur. Le téléphone sonne et l'on répond au début, on en assume la responsabilité. Mais le téléphone ne cesse jamais de sonner. On commence à redouter les appels. La responsabilité commence à peser et nous écrase doucement. Un jour, elle nous brise.
    L'imperfection est parfaite pour l'homme. Elle nous rappelle, à chaque erreur, que nous ne savons pas. Que nous tâtonnons. Que nous essayons. Parce que, comment pourrions-nous savoir ? Nous sommes imparfaits, et cela est juste.

  52. k.... n....

    man i will going thru some heavy stuff but your music was like made for me thanks man hopin one day i myt see u perform keep writtin music man i appreciate you

  53. T.... D....

    I relate heavily to this movie and the songs accurately respresent the optimistic and dreamy state I live in. I constantly see myself doing more and I am just trying to retire as quick as I can so I can live my dreams out.

    This movie had a profound impact on my life. I was a complete floater and daydreamer and could always find an excuse for the way things were. I watched this movie several times around 2014 2016. In that time my second child had a very serious illness shortly after been born. My wife and I watched this in the hospital together waiting outside ICU. In was in those weeks that I decided to take charge of my life and like this song says 'do whatever to stay alive'. Those were dark days and since then my wife and I have moved country, our children are healthy and happy (with another on the way) and life is moving forward. Things can still be tough - here I am listing to this late at night because I can't sleep worrying- but I am in change of my life now.

    The lyrics from this song still bring tears to my eyes today thinking of those times but as the lyrics say: dawn is coming.
