Yellowcard - Here I Am Alive Lyrics
If I could write to the kid I was before,
I'd tell him you'll get everything you ever wanted,
But you will still want more.
Someone's going to tell you
Who should want to be
And when they give up, cause they will give up say
Here I am alive.
[Hook:]
They say you don't grow up
You just grow old,
It's safe to say I haven't done both
I made mistakes, I know, I know
But here I am alive.
So many people close to me cut me down,
I jumped, I fell, I hit the ground.
But here I am alive.
If I could write to myself
When I was on top of it all,
I'd say you're going overboard
and when you're falling
You're gonna feel so small,
Someone's gonna tell you that you deserve the worst,
They'll say you're never coming back
And tell you that you're cursed.
And when they give up, cause they always give up.
Say, here I am alive.
[Hook:]
They say you don't grow up
You just grow old,
It's safe to say I haven't done both
I made mistakes, I know, I know
But here I am alive.
So many people close to me cut me down,
This is supposed to be a bad luck town
I jumped, I fell, I hit the ground.
But here I am alive.
(Alive alive alive alive alive)
And when they give up, cause they will give up
Say: Here I am alive!
When they give up, cause they always give up
Say: Here I am alive!
[Hook:]
They say you don't grow up
You just grow old,
It's safe to say I haven't done both
I made mistakes, I know, I know
But here I am alive.
So many people close to me cut me down,
This is supposed to be a bad luck town
I jumped, I fell, I hit the ground.
But here I am alive.
Here I am alive!
Here I am alive!
Here I am alive!
Here I am alive!
If I could write to the kid I was before

I think I was in my sophomore year when I discovered this album which basically made me fall in love with this kind of genre in music. Forever grateful for you, Yellowcard. 💚
Let the beats be struck in you heart.

2 years since I heard the song but been singing but listening to it again made me feel alive again,missing "Keeper" and "Breathing" of Yellowcard,the final fantasies one!
yellowcard, can you please make a lyric video for "Sing for me".. the copyright thingie is making it impossible to find a lyric video of that song.
Dear Yellowcard, 5 years ago on my birthday (in August) I heard this. I remember crying how much the lyrics have an impact on me. Please now that years later I still feel the same and even more grateful that I can sing to it with much more confidence. Thanks for helping me become stronger, for reminding me that here I am alive. It means so much. More power to you guys hopefully. <3
Gabi Mara me too i

Oh, Dolor! Oh, Sufrimiento! RIP Yellowcard 😢

Are you sure this is Yellowcard? It sounds so much like Simple Plan. Has Piere Bouvier replaced Ryan Key for this album
Hi Youtubers...people on youtube, I wanted to pop in and get feedback on how to best get connected here on Youtube. I'd rather get people who are on it and who enjoy my taste of music ^ Yellowcard, ect. So if anyone has a second, I'd love to get your feedback, add me, subscribe, idk connect to chat. Also, I commented on another very enjoyed and special song that got me through a lot, but on this one, honestly, I listen to it every morning trying to keep my self going. What this means is...Yellowcard, Keep up the great music!, Songs!, and Heart! It's doing more than you think. I love jumping on youtube to see what ya'll are up to and seeing more, great music! Anyways, like I mentioned, if you or anyone who can, let me know how to best use Youtube, It'd mean alot! Thanks, -DGJ

MAN ITS BEEN A WHILE <3 time to catch up with this "newer" songs
+TysonIsKetchy Aren't you that girl who wrote "airwaves and angels" on that relaxation music video? I think I recognize your pic and here you are listening to another song that's on repeat here. Lol You got great taste in music, just letting u know:)
@WorldOfSnakes hahhaa yes that was me <3 :P
+TysonIsKetchy Thanks for making me discover a new band. And I don't know about you, but that sleeping music video doesn't do it for me anymore. Lol
Best song ever :-) !!!!
"They say you don't grow up, you just grow old
It's safe to say I haven't done both!"
So simple but so much meaning, i LOVE it!!
I'm somewhat disappointed in Yellowcard for straying so close to the pop end of the pop-punk spectrum, but I can't deny this is a really catchy song.
Well. Simple Plan's pop tracks in their newest album were more disappointing than this (and the tracks of Lift A Sail) could ever be.
love this.
#thechallenge
This song o:
I feel like i'm exactly where i should be
This song reminds me of Motion City Soundtrack in all of the best ways.
@The Spiral Warrior Formerly Known as Illidreth Haha, awesome to read this because MCS is my favorite band with Yellowcard as a close second. New MCS album coming out this year, if you didn't know! :D
such an amazing album and this song still holds such true feelings for me personally. incredible❤

@Rik Wiewel
But here I am alive!
My wife just had my firstborn and we're struggling with family and visitors and exhaustion. This song is really helping me keep my spirits up and take care of my girls.
update tho
Jackthetattedone it's been 3 years, i wish you and your family the best
It's late but keep up the good work!
This song reminds me of my school. About people picking on me and all that crap.. ;-; This is a really good song. first one i have heard by this band! :)
this song makes me happy c:
Your picture makes me happy c:
This song always keeps me going when I feel like crap.
This is definitely an uplifting song
This song made me feel so much better ....
i went through a break up today..he's not so worth it.thanks to this song it comforts me so much :D HERE I AM ALIVE
Janine how was the breakup 4years ago? ;)
Too soon?
RIVALS 2 Finale
Whoa! You were totally missing out!
This song really went to Challenge Rivalls 2 at the ending. I miss that show
they're such a great band
Yellowcard: Making relevant songs since its inception. And making them excellent, even as they change pace over the years.
LOL i dont know why you word it so serious it made me laugh.. and i respect your opinion
Man Overboard is fucking awful. They try too hard to copy Blink-182 and their lead singer's voice is just so damn annoying.
I think I just found love in a Hopeless place.
That moment when a song finds your fancy because it describes you :3
These lyrics are basically me right now. But I feel they should have played this in the minor.
and man overboard
Inspirational song; loved Yellowcard since I first heard them years and years ago, and still love them!
and BLINK 182!!!!!!
This is such a great song! :D
they should not have featured tay jardine because her part was nothing. in comparison mark hoppus had more of a part in thank and goodnight from tonight alive and that was hardly anything as well.
You fucking said it !! but also We Are The In Crowd
you forgot to mention Sum 41. Now is complete! :)
and We Are The In Crowd, Coldplay, Nickelback, Linkin Park.....
have you been sleeping for four months?
I love this song!!! My friend and me were listening to music and she told me to listen to this song and i fell in love with it xD best song ever!!
If my life had a soundtrack this would be on it
This song keeps me going when I feel like giving up on my dreams. Thank you Yellowcard, for motivating me.
Awesome!!:)
AMAZING
41 people are not here alive
>All Time Low
Same here :D
I just discovered this group and I'm pretty sure I'm in love.
i hope to play this song again maybe after 5 years or so. :D
The story of my life.. l,,l/
My Song :)
i agree with you :D
agreed
u're right. before I started eating right it didn't matter how much I exercised my abs were still jello. Listen to this Do you know about the 7 odd foods that kill belly fat if you don't know about them you must see this. i found it here >>> bit.ly/16vTMOk?=cfxje
GO!!! PATRICK STUMP
I'm not gonna argue that, you're entitled to your opinion. xD
Just sayin, they still make good music! :)
esta chidisimo
I love how both top comments reference Simple Plan, my 2nd favorite band right behind Yellowcard <3
muffinsex
You have your opinion, i have mine. I prefer Simple Plan's music in the early 2000's to now but i still like their recent music :)
Not really, In my opinion they have progressed.. :)
I completely agree. The last two records are just terrible.
I know but i mean the time when 'I'm just a kid' and 'Welcome to my life' were about, the best of Simple Plan.
they're still around you know..xD
THIS SONG IS AWESOME ! Nuff said (:
I just loved this song! I love the lyrics, most of all. It's great :)
Yeah, no, first 2 songs on the album are vintage Yellowcard, so is most of it.
I think you mean to say that "you don't think it's pop punk"
To each their own. Your opinion doesn't change what everyone else thinks it is.
Pop means popular music, and this is a punk band, therefore it is pop punk
