Story Behind the Song
There comes a time when you've got to break the rules, get free of the chains that hold you back. Life's too short to get tied down. This is a story of letting go of those confines and restrictions and feeling alive.
Lyrics
I Feel Alive
I’ve been trying to find a way to tell you,
That I’m glad you let me go,
‘Coz I couldn’t stay around much longer,
As we both know
But there comes a time,
When I gotta break the rules,
I can’t listen to you no more,
Telling me what to do
I feel alive,
Like I can fly,
I’m so alive,
I’ll be alright
My time has been running out,
Couldn’t look at your face no more,
I’ve come to the end of the line,
Gotta scrape myself off the floor,
But there comes a time,
When you gotta break the rules,
Not selling my soul,
Or anything else to you
Chorus
Bridge
Don’t say another word,
The harms already done,
I stuck it out for
As long as I could,
You played me like a fool
But there comes a time,
When I gotta break the rules,
I don’t give a damn,
Who’s gonna win or lose
I feel alive,
Like I can fly,
I feel alive,
I’ll be alright
