[INTRO — FEMALE / MALE] FEMALE: You hear that heartbeat? MALE: Yeah, I hear it. FEMALE: Then turn it up. [CRUNCHY GUITAR RIFF — FULL BAND SLAMS IN] [VERSE 1 — MALE] We spent too many nights counting every scar, Wondering how the hell we got this far. Every door they slammed just made us push back hard, Now we’re done letting yesterday decide who we are. [FEMALE — STRONG RESPONSE] We’ve got nothing left to prove! [MALE] We’ve got nothing left to hide! [BOTH] After everything we’ve been through, We’re still standing side by side. [PRE-CHORUS — MALE / FEMALE] MALE: We paid our dues! FEMALE: We played their game! MALE: They tried to break us! FEMALE: But we’re still the same! BOTH: They don’t get to own our name! [CHORUS — BIG, MELODIC, MALE + FEMALE] MALE: TONIGHT WE’RE ALIVE! FEMALE: We’re alive! MALE: Tonight we cross that line! FEMALE: Cross that line! MALE: No looking back, no alibis! FEMALE: No alibis! BOTH: This is our life — we’re taking it back tonight! MALE: Let the past burn in the rearview light! FEMALE: Let it burn! BOTH: We’ve got one hell of a reason tonight! MALE: If tomorrow wants to pick a fight— FEMALE: Let it wait! BOTH: It can wait till morning! TONIGHT WE’RE ALIVE! [VERSE 2 — MALE] We’ve heard the talk, we’ve seen the other side, Know what it costs just to keep your pride. We’re done standing still while the years roll by, There’s a hell of a life waiting on the other side. [FEMALE — SHARP, DEFIANT] No more asking! [MALE] No more waiting! [FEMALE] No more giving up our place! [BOTH] We didn’t come this far Just to watch it slip away! [PRE-CHORUS — MALE / FEMALE] MALE: We paid our dues! FEMALE: We played their game!
