Anthem Lights - Alive Lyrics

I read every story But I kept my distance and held my suspicions As I held it in my hands Didn't understand the meaning Like it was all blurry Like your ink was bleeding

But now I can see That it's living and breathing You're standing in front of my eyes

Your word's alive As the fish that swim in the sea As a bird that's ridin' a breeze through the sky Through the sky And it never dies It'll listen and tell you the truth Like a friend you could never lose That's why I survive cuz Your word's alive It's alive, it's alive

It's more than just some stories Filling up pages with blanketed statements To keep you warm at night It's the guide that leads to Heaven It has all the answers to all of your questions

It's living and breathing like hearing you speaking You're standing in front of my eyes

Your word's alive As the fish that swim in the sea As a bird that's ridin' a breeze through the sky Through the sky And it never dies It'll listen and tell you the truth Like a friend you could never lose That's why I survive cuz Your word's alive It's alive, it's alive

When I'm helpless I know what to do My frame of reference Is your good news Every sentence Is something I could use What connects us Your word's the proof

Your word's alive As the fish that swim in the sea As a bird that's ridin' a breeze through the sky Through the sky And it never dies It'll listen and tell you the truth Like a friend you could never lose That's why I survive cuz Your word's alive It's alive, it's alive
