lyrics

Most of the people, Most of the time:
"We'll wait
'cos waiting's what we do
We'll wait
'cos waiting's seen us through
So far
So good."

So sick of waiting.
So fucking sick.

No.

You'll wait, you'll wait, for someone else to set you free
You'll wait, you'll wait, but no-one else will set you free

See I crawl, and beg
And lap, and dance
And fawn, and suck
Yet listen to what they're telling me

"Calm down. Calm down." (They're telling me)
"Calm down."

You ask yourself "why set myself to fail when I can just stow away?"
(I understand...) You're scared... whisper it
(I understand...) You're scared... whisper it

But who's left to say "This isn't right"?
Get me a witness, call me a witness

Come here, stand up , let's finish what we started
Let's remember the departed as we gather strength
From victories past
Come here, stand up, let's finish what we started
Let's honour those who've parted, who live on
In memories cast
In deeds that last
Remember:

"Free at last"

This African son can still remember the burn
Of an African sun in a forgotten land
This is The Third World, could be another world
Under an African sun in a forgotten land

But who's left to say "This isn't right"?
Get me a witness, call me a witness

The light in your eyes has faded with the dulling ache of compromise but one day we'll say:
"This is where we were, this what we saw
This is who we were, this is what we heard":
Will you regret it?

We'll ask "What did we do?"

The time is...
NOW.

How do you even know that you're alive?

I've never felt this much alive... (x3) with this devotion
I've never felt this much alive... (x3) with this emotion
Sometimes you've got to shout it out

Sometimes you've got to... (the time is...)

Otherwise you'll see what we'll become
You'll see what we'll become
See what we'll become
We've got to keep the dream alive

I've never felt so much alive
Am I alone like this?
Am I afraid of this?
Am I a fool to feel this?
Am I alone?

So now you see
It's up to us

I've never felt so much alive
