Take Us Alive

[Verse 1]
A simple bit of conversation
All we ever do is talkin’
It starts in our imagination
And we hid it all in the end

[Pre-Chorus]
Go tell everyone to tell everyone
This ride has begun
This gun is locked and loaded
Don’t try this at home
We warned everyone
Hold the paint and run

[Chorus]
I feel like time stands still when we’re all alone
We make the sparks set fire and then watch it grow
And if the stars burn out, you know we’ll still glow
Like it’s the last night we’ll ever have
And they’ll never take us alive
Like it’s the last night we’ll ever have
And they’ll never take us alive

[Verse 2]
I think I had a revelation
The only thing left to stop us
Is a little bit of hesitation
And we all know it’s pretend

[Pre-Chorus]
Go tell everyone to tell everyone
This ride has begun
This gun is locked and loaded
Don’t try this at home
We warned everyone
Hold the paint and run

[Chorus]
I feel like time stands still when we’re all alone
We make the sparks set fire and then watch it grow
And if the stars burn out, you know we’ll still glow
Like it’s the last night we’ll ever have
And they’ll never take us alive
They’ll never take us alive
Like it’s the last night we’ll ever have
And they’ll never take us alive

[Bridge]
You’ve been down in the dead sea
We can get high if you let me
Like the day that you met me
Take a deep breath— let's see
Let me take this snowflame, I can make it bigger
Tell me how it feels with your finger on the trigger
Take that shot, fire effortlessly
And my body we lit is two bodies could be
Now you’re strapped in, in control
You want everything we missed before
I got everything we missed and more
So run to me while they run for cover tonight
And we could have it all
Yeah we could have it all

[Chorus]
I feel like time stands still when we’re all alone
We make the sparks set fire and then watch it grow
And if the stars burn out, you know we’ll still glow
Like it’s the last night we’ll ever have
And they’ll never take us alive
Time stands still when we’re all alone
We make the sparks set fire and then watch it grow (Watch it grow)
And if the stars burn out, you know we’ll still glow
Like it’s the last night we’ll ever have
And they’ll never take us alive
