Greatest Showman Cast, The - Come Alive Lyrics






[P.T. Barnum:]
You stumble through your days
Got your head hung low
Your sky's a shade of grey
Like a zombie in a maze
You're asleep inside
But you can shake awake

'Cause you're just a dead man walkin'
Thinkin' that's your only option
But you can flip the switch
And brighten up your darkest day
Sun is up and the color's blinding
Take a world and redefine it
Leave behind your narrow mind
You'll never be the same

Come alive, come alive
Go and light your light
Let it burn so bright
Reachin' up to the sky
And it's open wide
You're electrified

And the world becomes a fantasy
And you're more than you could ever be
'Cause you're dreaming with your eyes wide open
And you know you can't go back again
To the world that you were living in
'Cause you're dreaming with your eyes wide open
So, come alive

I see it in your eyes
You believe that lie
That you need to hide your face
Afraid to step outside
So you lock the door
But don't you stay that way

[Lettie Lutz:]
No more living in those shadows
You and me, we know how that goes

[Lord of Leeds:]
'Cause once you see it,
Oh you'll never, never be the same
[Both::]
A little bit of lightnin' strikin'
Bottled up to keep on shinin'
[All::]
You can prove there's more to you

[P.T. Barnum:]
You cannot be afraid

[Ensemble::]
Come alive, come alive
Go and light your light
Let it burn so bright
Reachin' up to the sky
And it's open wide
You're electrified

And the world becomes a fantasy
And you're more than you could ever be
'Cause you're dreaming with your eyes wide open
And we know we can't go back again
To the world that we were living in
'Cause we're dreaming with our eyes wide open
So, come alive!

[Ensemble:]
Come one!
Come all!
Come in!
Come on!
[Anne Wheeler:]
To anyone who's bursting with a dream

Come one!
Come all!
You hear the call!
[P.T. Barnum:]
To anyone who's searching for a way to break free
(Break free!
Break free!)

[Ensemble and P.T. Barnum:]
And the world becomes a fantasy
And you're more than you could ever be
'Cause you're dreaming with your eyes wide open
And we know we can't go back again
To the world that we were living in
'Cause we're dreaming with our eyes wide open

And the world becomes a fantasy
And you're more than you could ever be
'Cause you're dreaming with your eyes wide open
And we know we can't go back again
To the world that we were living in
'Cause we're dreaming with our eyes wide open

'Cause we're dreaming with our eyes wide open
So, come alive! (Come alive!)

  11. F.... L....

    I imagined Rick Grimes singing this.

  12. E.... B....

    This is the musical we are doing in our school this year

  24. d.... t....

    Best song in the whole movie.

  25. T.... t....

    So I get why the bearded lady, Siamese twins, albinos, and little person are considered freaks (at that time.) But why is that tattoed man there?

    T.... t....

    Thomas takes a toll for the dark I guess because someone covered in tattoos was considered a freak back then.

  45. �.... ....

    2:36 이걸 나보다 어떻게 추라고 감독 미친년아

  46. A.... M....

    Everybody's talking about how well Hugh Jackman did (WHICH HE DID) but we actually need to appreciate the ACTUAL P.T Barnum. He accepted these so-called "freaks" when nobody else did.

  47. A.... M....

    im playing this on the trumpet.








    holy crap it's high as frick

  48. R.... ....

    I love this song so much. I used to feel exactly like a zombie in a maze until I finally woke up and left my narrow mind behind. I'm not yet where I wanna be at but I'm closer than ever. And I could never go back to the world I used to live in because now I see, breathe, and eat my dreams.

    If you're reading this message and you still believe in a dream. Go after it and sacrifice yourself for it. Your life depends on it.

  49. A.... A....

    If this is true donald trump will hate this.

    I

  50. H.... ....

    Expectation: TGS Barnum
    Reality: Real Barnum

  51. w.... i....

  57. M.... ....

    1:01 what is Barnum doing to the giant? I’m genuinely curious.

  68. M.... D....

    Your stumbled upon your days got your head hung low the skies a shade of grey *snaps* like a zombie in a maze your’re asleep inside but you can shake awake cause you’re just a dead man walking thinking that’s your only option

  69. A.... R....

    This song and this movie makes me cry everytime i belived that lie that i needed to hide but not anymore i'm Transgender and i'm not afraid to show my true self in public😀💜

  70. A.... M....

    Who else feels Like I am now awake from a period of distress

  71. M.... S....

    My show choir is doing this song! I’m so excited 💕👏

  72. L.... N....

    Escape 5 alsum kece abis pake lagu ini 🔥🔥

  73. R.... H....

    I hate those thugs who were beating them up.

    In reality in the movie, there the FREAKS!

  74. L.... Z....

    In fact the only way you could find the answer.

  75. m.... f....

    Thats my friend concert :)

  76. D.... ....

    I danced in musicals in high school. I would KILL to dance this one!

  77. S.... N....

  83. j.... ....

    Say what you will about the script, you gotta admit the choreography is stellar

  84. �.... �....

    Відпад приємно слухати

  85. M.... A....

    I love this song!! Come alivell

  86. M.... ....

    Why are the lyrics wrong?!

    "We will be the light that's turning,
    Bottle up but keep on shining".
    Literally makes no sense.

    The version sung live is:
    "A little bit of lightning striking,
    Bottled up to keep on shining"

    M.... ....

    They are also wrong on the chorus too because they say we and the lyrics say you

  87. L.... C....

    I like that they actually sing and they never lip sync

    L.... C....

    It is lip sync, they recorde the voices on the studio and put some autotune (It's not autotune but I don't know the name)

  88. l.... w....

    Lol my chorus class is singing this, it has such a happy vibe to it! :)

  89. B.... N....

    The greatest movie ever made!...

  90. M.... T....

    American horror story children’s musical less creepy violent version

  91. J.... C....

    3:54 (until to the end)
    I Was Waiting This Part EveryTime Iam Hearing This Song.



    Pluss... Zendaya Ur Mah Angel

  92. E.... S....

    The fat man is the most underrated of them all
