Lyrics
Rebel Beat
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
We keep heading in the same direction
You become my own reflection
Is that your soul that you're trying to protect
I always hoped that we would intersect, yeah
Give me time to cope and time to heal
Time to cry if it's what you feel
Oh, life can hope, when it gets too real
I can hold you up when it's hard to feel
Alive, alive
Alive is all i wanna feel
Tonight, tonight
I need to be where you are
I need to be where you are
Hey you, look around
Can you hear that noise, it's a rebel sound
We got nowhere else to go
And when the sun goes down and we fill the streets
You're gonna dance till the morning to the rebels beat
You can take everything from me
'cause this is all i need
You know that life is like a ticking clock
Nobody knows when it's gonna stop, yeah
Before i'm gone i need to touch someone
With a word, with a kiss, with a decent song yeah
And it gets lonely when you live out loud
When the truth that you seek isn't in this crowd
You better find your voice, better make it loud
We're gonna burn that fire, or we'll just burn out
Alive, alive
Alive is all i wanna feel
Tonight, tonight
I need to be where you are
I need to be where you are
Hey you, look around
Can you hear that noise, it's a rebel sound
We got nowhere else to go
And when the sun goes down and we fill the streets
You're gonna dance till the morning to the rebels beat
You can take everything from me, oh yeah
You can take everything from me
'cause this is all i need
We are free tonight
And everything's alright
Put your arms around me
Baby, show me how to move you
'cause there's no worries, there's no cares
Feel the sound that's everywhere
Take what's ours for once and baby, run like hell!
Hey you, look around
Can you hear that noise, it's a rebel sound
We got nowhere else to go
Hey you, look around
Can you hear that noise, it's a rebel sound
We got nowhere else to go
And when the sun goes down and we fill the streets
You're gonna dance till the morning to the rebels beat
You can take everything from me, oh yeah
You can take everything from me
'cause this is all i need
This is all i need
