Alive Lyrics
Stuck in a world
No longer turning
Always the girl
waiting for something
too many days
walking 'round sleeping
open my eyes
im tired of dreaming
I wanna run with a reckless emotion
Find out if love is the size of an ocean
Even if i crash down and burn out
At least I'm gonna know what it's like
To feel alive
hey yeah hey yeah yeah yeah
Sun on your face
Lights up a city
Maybe in love
or just learning to be
On my two feet
I can hardly imagine
I'll say the words
And believe it'll happen
I wanna run with a reckless emotion
Find out if love is the size of an ocean
Even if i crash down and burn out
At least I'm gonna know what it's like
To feel alive
They think they know me but how can they know me I'm getting to know myself
I'm finally ready to be someboy with a story to tell
I wanna run with a reckless emotion
Find out if love is the size of an ocean
Even if i crash down and burn out
At least I'm gonna know what it's like
I wanna feel till my heart breaks wide open
I wanna blaze like a fire thats roaring
Even if i crash down and burn out
At least I'm gonna know what it's like
To feel alive
To feel alive
No longer turning
Always the girl
waiting for something
too many days
walking 'round sleeping
open my eyes
im tired of dreaming
Find out if love is the size of an ocean
Even if i crash down and burn out
At least I'm gonna know what it's like
To feel alive
Lights up a city
Maybe in love
or just learning to be
On my two feet
I can hardly imagine
I'll say the words
And believe it'll happen
Find out if love is the size of an ocean
Even if i crash down and burn out
At least I'm gonna know what it's like
To feel alive
I'm finally ready to be someboy with a story to tell
Find out if love is the size of an ocean
Even if i crash down and burn out
At least I'm gonna know what it's like
I wanna blaze like a fire thats roaring
Even if i crash down and burn out
At least I'm gonna know what it's like
To feel alive

wow such a passionate song i love the meaning and i think she totaly suits it its awesome and inspirational, go melissa
I think she's saying that she's tired of sitting around wishing that someday, her prince charming would find her and sweep her off her feet.
She's ready to explore, do something she's never done before, explore, find him before it's too late.
And more than anything, she wants to feel alive, like she's actually pushing beyond the limits.
And even if everything fails in the end, at least she will know that she had the courage to do something for herself.
I honestly believe that every girl feels this way at some point in their lives.
