TONIGHT WE’RE ALIVE!

מילים

[INTRO — FEMALE SINGS WITH POWER OVER A CRUNCHY GUITAR RIFF] We didn’t come this far to fade away! We’re gonna make ’em remember tonight! [MALE — GRITTY, SUNG WITH A DEFIANT EDGE] Turn it up! [FULL BAND SLAMS IN] [VERSE 1 — MALE LEAD] Black leather, red lights, engine running hot, We don’t need a reason, we don’t need a lot. Got a little bit of danger and a whole lot of nerve, We’re done playing nice, now we’re getting what we deserve. You can draw your lines, you can lock your doors, We’ve been down that road — we don’t walk it no more. There’s a look in your eyes that I know too well, Two hearts like ours could raise a little hell. [FEMALE — SHARP, POWERFUL RESPONSE] You want a little trouble? [MALE] You know I do! [FEMALE] Then keep up, baby! [MALE] I’m counting on you! [PRE-CHORUS — BOTH VOICES BUILDING] MALE: Hear that thunder rolling in? FEMALE: That’s the sound of us again! MALE: No brakes, no fear, no looking behind! BOTH: We’re gonna leave our mark tonight! [CHORUS — HUGE, MELODIC, EXPLOSIVE] MALE: TONIGHT WE’RE ALIVE! FEMALE: ALIVE! ALIVE! MALE: Got a wild heart beating like a battle cry! FEMALE: Let it RISE! Let it RISE! BOTH: We don’t bend, we don’t break, We don’t give a damn what they say! Turn the world upside down, let the sparks hit the sky — WE WERE BORN FOR TONIGHT! MALE: TONIGHT WE’RE ALIVE! FEMALE: ALIVE! ALIVE! BOTH: Turn it up, let it burn — WE’RE ALIVE! [VERSE 2 — MALE LEAD, DRIVING GROOVE] We got scars that don’t show and a past we outran, Never needed permission, never needed a plan. Every door slammed shut just made us more sure, We don’t chase their approval — we know what we’re worth. [FEMALE — WITH ATTITUDE] You can call us reckless! [MALE] Call us insane! [FEMALE] You can bet against us! [MALE] You’ll lose that game! [BOTH] We came for the moment, we’re taking the night, And nothing in this world is gonna dim our light! [PRE-CHORUS — FULLER DRUMS, RISING GUITARS] MALE: Hear that thunder rolling in? FEMALE: That’s the sound of us again! MALE: No brakes, no fear, no looking behind! BOTH: We’re gonna leave our mark tonight! [CHORUS — BIGGER, FEMALE HARMONIES THROUGHOUT] MALE: TONIGHT WE’RE ALIVE! FEMALE: ALIVE! ALIVE! MALE: Got a wild heart beating like a battle cry! FEMALE: Let it RISE! Let it RISE! BOTH: We don’t bend, we don’t break, We don’t give a damn what they say! Turn the world upside down, let the sparks hit the sky — WE WERE BORN FOR TONIGHT! MALE: TONIGHT WE’RE ALIVE! FEMALE: ALIVE! ALIVE! BOTH: Turn it up, let it burn — WE’RE ALIVE! [GUITAR SOLO — SHORT, CATCHY, MELODIC 80s ROCK SOLO] [BRIDGE — HEAVY HALF-TIME GROOVE, VOCALS STRIPPED BACK] MALE: You can keep your rules! FEMALE: Keep your alibis! MALE: You can keep your little world! FEMALE: We were born to fly! MALE: Are you ready? FEMALE: Born ready! BOTH: Then let the whole damn night remember our names! [DRUM FILL — FULL BAND EXPLODES BACK IN] [FINAL CHORUS — MAXIMUM ENERGY, BOTH VOCALS FULL POWER] MALE: TONIGHT WE’RE ALIVE! FEMALE: ALIVE! ALIVE! MALE: Got a wild heart beating like a battle cry! FEMALE: Let it RISE! Let it RISE! BOTH: We don’t bend, we don’t break, We don’t give a damn what they say! Turn the world upside down, let the sparks hit the sky — WE WERE BORN FOR TONIGHT! MALE: TONIGHT WE’RE ALIVE! FEMALE: ALIVE! ALIVE! BOTH: No surrender, no goodbye — WE’RE ALIVE! [OUTRO — FINAL GUITAR RIFF, BOTH VOCALS] MALE: Tonight! FEMALE: We’re alive! BOTH: TONIGHT WE’RE ALIVE! [ONE HUGE GUITAR HIT — HARD STOP]
