It’s all dark,
The streets are empty,
Take me home,
Here radio friendly.
Keep me out,
Take me under,
The water bridge,
Like when we were younger.
Here again,
I get nervous,
Think of leaving,
To know the ending.
There you are,
That’s my doubt,
You’re electric,
I’m a powerout.
Don’t know who I am,
But I’ll be with you,
Alive
Don’t know who I am,
But I’ll be with you,
Alive
I don’t want to go,
There’s nothing but rumour,
About what I might have never been.
You don’t have to come,
See that if I,
You can stay,
Leave it behind.
Leave it behind.
Leave it behind.
Don’t know who I am,
But I’ll be with you,
Alive
Don’t know who I am,
But I’ll be with you,
Alive
You don’t have to give,
It’s nothing to me.
Cross your arms,
keep everything.
There’s another side to this sad story.
Fuck you Hollywood,
I’m the glory,
I’m the glory,
I’m the glory.
Yes, the one
I'm the glorious one.
Don’t know who I am,
But I’ll be with you,
Alive
Don’t know who I am,
But I’ll be with you,
Alive
Don’t know who you are,
Or where you are,
Beside me.
Don’t know who you are,
Or where you are,
Beside me.
The streets are empty,
Take me home,
Here radio friendly.
Keep me out,
Take me under,
The water bridge,
Like when we were younger.
I get nervous,
Think of leaving,
To know the ending.
There you are,
That’s my doubt,
You’re electric,
I’m a powerout.
But I’ll be with you,
Alive
But I’ll be with you,
Alive
There’s nothing but rumour,
About what I might have never been.
You don’t have to come,
See that if I,
You can stay,
Leave it behind.
Leave it behind.
Leave it behind.
But I’ll be with you,
Alive
But I’ll be with you,
Alive
It’s nothing to me.
Cross your arms,
keep everything.
There’s another side to this sad story.
Fuck you Hollywood,
I’m the glory,
I’m the glory,
I’m the glory.
Yes, the one
I'm the glorious one.
But I’ll be with you,
Alive
But I’ll be with you,
Alive
Or where you are,
Beside me.
Or where you are,
Beside me.

I guess I'm the only one who finds this song incredibly moving... I don't know what it's about but it pops into my head at certain moments, when I'm utterly overwhelmed by emotion and I don't know how to describe it. It's the soundtrack for late summer nights with people you care about, but you know you might lose touch with.
you're definitely not the only one whose moved by it. it's in my top 3 favorite stars songs (along with my radio and elevator love letter)
this is such a happy-go-lucky song!!! does anyone know when there new album's coming out?
so simple. yet amazingly beautiful. i totally agree with sybaritic. absolutely perfect for late summer nights.
It's like being with someone and devoted to that person. You feel like that person is the person that's meant to be there for you, but you can't help but have your doubts and feel like that person might not always be there.
the lyrics are somewhat wrong but anyway...Ive been dating my boyfriend for a while, and sometimes my feelings for him become so overwhelming I get depressed thinking that this wont last forever..I believe amy millan is writing about those feelings, wanting it to last but knowing it cant
fuck you hollywood, i'm the glory! love that :)
Fixed lyrics:
It’s all dark, The streets are empty, Take me home, Hear radio friendly. Keep me out, Take me under, The water bridge, Like when we were younger.
You lean in, I get nervous, Think of leaving, To know the ending. There you are, That’s my doubt, You’re electric, I’m a powerout.
Don’t know who I am, But I'm here with you, Alive
Don’t know who I am, But I’ll be with you, Alive
I don’t want to go, There’s nothing but rumour, About what I might have never been. You don’t have to come, See it in your eye, You can stay, Leave it behind. Leave it behind. Leave it behind.
Don’t know who I am, But I’m here with you, Alive
Don’t know who I am, But I’ll be with you, Alive
You don’t have to give, It’s nothing to me. Cross your arms, keep everything. There’s another side to this sad story. Fuck you Hollywood, I’m the glory, I’m the glory, I’m the glory. Yes, the one I'm the glorious one.
Don’t know who I am, But I’m here with you, Alive
Don’t know who I am, But I’ll be with you, Alive
Don’t know who you are, But there you are, Beside me.
Don’t know who you are, But there you are, Beside me.
I love this song.
