Lyrics of 'Alive Again' by Neal Morse

You called me forth beneath the waves and wayward waters
That kind of trust I've never felt, I always wind up sinking down
Was I really dead and at the bottom of the ocean?
Stay the course, I heard you say, but all I saw was the long way down

Now I feel like I'm alive again!
Spread my arms upon the open wind
Yeah, I feel like I'm alive again!
Crashing waves like breath upon my skin

The wounded warrior has no temporary shelter
Chasing down an enemy that'll always lurk inside of me
Finally he killed what he had come to think his quarry
The man who's heart was like the sea was gone and he will never be found

Now I feel like I'm alive again!
Spread my arms upon the open wind
Yeah, I feel like I'm alive again!
Never looking back to where I've been

I can see the light burning in my soul
I can see the light, I know that I must go!

The King of Surprise and the Boredom Queen
Went out to dine at the bottom line!
Drinking blood red wine!
The Jack of all Trades and The Master of None
Set out to get back at most everyone!
It's not too late (to get free)
There's something more (you used to see)
Get back to (where you used to be!)

Fly away, lost in a place of dreaming
I wanna hide away, gone forever
Fly away far from the silent screaming
I wanna hide away, gone forever

The daughters of angst and wretched rage
Pull the sword from the stone like Al Capone
As the king of pain (goes insane)
Where the Pope of Rome (meets the Pope at home)
And the nicotine stain (goes unexplained)

Fly away, lost in a place of dreaming
I wanna hide away, where I can't remember
Fly away far from the silent screaming
I'm gonna hide away, gone forever

Locks on a box holding inside
The face in the mirror seems to disguise
The boy at the door, who I was before
Is more than I'll ever be
The sun kissed the day, I was well on my way
I'd love to just love you but I've no time today
The man that I saw, who could stand on the sea
Was more than I'd ever be

Sometimes, in the dark night of my soul
In the corner of my life, I see the man inside
Running again, the sun shining in
The boy from the sad side, no chance to win
Just walk through that door, to something much more
More than I'll ever be!
Sometimes, in the dark night of my soul
From the corner of my eye, I see the man inside
Now I find he is making my dreams alive
In the brightest of my day, I can see the man (I see the man)
I can see the man inside!

The wounded warrior with no temporary shelter
Had lost the will to stand and fight to the enemy that lives inside
Now he's on the run because the king of angel armies
Has come to bring the dead to life
And cleanse the darkness with the light
Now I feel like I'm alive again
Stretch my arms upon the open wind
Yeah, I feel I'm alive again
Never going back to where I've been

Now I can see the light burning in my soul
I can see the light, I know that I must go!
I must go!
