Look Alive Songtext
von Incubus

The hardest thing is rendering
A moment moving too fast to endure
But you abide and smile wide
′Cause I want to remember this for sure
You can give me guns and politics
And I'll just make a mess of it, ya′ know
Give me art and sustenance
And the wiser, wider part of me will show
Yeah, yeah, yeah

Pictures say with sight
What we can't say with words
But you've been walking eyes to feet in dark sunglasses
A picture will survive
So smile and look alive
The camera lens is opening
A wider angle′s yours


Yeah, every empty one of us
Have methods to quell the madness of this pace
But yours have bled and running south
Like dollar store mascara down your face
You could take that weight and all that fuss
So now just gets the best of us, you know
Give me love not suicide
And the wiser, wider part of me will show
Yeah, yeah

A picture says with sight
What we can′t say with words
But you've been walking eyes to feet in dark sunglasses
A picture will survive
So smile and look alive
The camera lens is opening, the wider angle′s yours

Look alive, smile
Smile and look alive
Smile, smile and look alive

Yeah, whoa, oh, oh

A picture says with sight
What we can't say with words
But you′ve been walking eyes to feet in dark sunglasses
A picture will survive
So smile and look alive


A picture says with sight
What we can't say with words
But you′ve been walking eyes to feet in dark sunglasses
A picture will survive
So smile and look alive
The camera lens is opening, the wider angle's yours

Look alive
Smile, smile and look alive
Yeah, smile and look alive
Yeah, woah!
