Open your eyes
You’ve been sleeping through the daytime
You’ve been going round in circles in your mind
Put up a fight
For the hundredth time it’s not right
You’ve been pushed around by bullies all your life
And just when they say it’ll end
The reaper surfaces again
How many blessings can they send
To scatter useless in the wind
No end
Nowhere to hide
It’s gonna be a landslide
There’s a moment here that will not pass us by
And they say they’ve done all they can
With solemn faces they pretend
It’s time to say never again
Bring this illusion to an end
It’s time to say never again
It’s time to say never again
It’s happening every day
There’s gotta be more to life
If silence is what it takes
Stop waiting for better times
Shoegaze ist die Kunst des Dröhnens, doch „Everything Is Alive“ setzt diese Elemente nur sparsam ein. Statt Hall- und Zerr-Sounds aufzutürmen, schäumt die Musik in feinen Bläschen über.
