about

This song is about the importance of finding new ways to live your life. It can be easy to get stuck in a routine, but it's important to remember that there are always new things to experience and new ways to challenge yourself. If you're feeling stuck, try something new. Take a class, travel to a new place, or meet new people. You might be surprised at how much it can change your life. Be alive is a hymn to the power of change. It is about leaving behind the familiar and embracing the new, even when it is uncertain. The move to the north of Germany has been a journey of self-discovery for me, and it has helped me to find my creative voice.

lyrics

Been on the same
9-5 job lately I feel numb
What I became
I’m not proud of I’m just too far gone

I need something different
Give me a distraction
Something magnificent
Give me a disruption

Oh oh Oh oh
Stuck in the same routine Oh oh Oh oh
Stuck in the same routine

What would I give To be alive
What would I give To feel alive

I’d give it for
A brand new start
I’d give my all
To stay alive
I’d give it for
A different plot
I’d give my all
To stay alive

I know how this ends
Day ‘til night, my life’s predictable
As the day begins
Work ‘til late
it’s unacceptable
I need something different
Give me a distraction
Something magnificent
Give me a disruption

Oh oh Oh oh
Stuck in the same routine
Oh oh Oh oh
Stuck in the same routine

What would I give
To be alive
What would I give To feel alive
I’d give it for
A brand new start I’d give my all
To stay alive
I’d give it for
A different plot
I’d give my all
To stay alive
