So we're living...living in a world of apathy,
A pathetic disease of society,
Symptomatic enmity,
So we're sleeping with a false sense of security,
Sleeping in the cage of luxury,
Violent serenity,
Serenity.

Here we're laughing, spitting at the face of anarchy,
While victimized by hierarchy, capitalistic leprosy,
Now we're sipping from the cup of irony,
Raise a toast to hypocrisy, honesty, fallacy.

But the word is alive, and alive is the word,
Existing, existing inside the mind,
But the heart sets the pace, puts the change into motion.
That's why the word is alive is the word.

So we're walking between the walls of sanity, encircling mendacity,
Come to efface the effigy,
And we're listening without a sense a urgency,
Relying on the weight of policy to fill the scars of humanity,
Escaping, crack the core of reality,
Glimpses of eternity: monumental idealism,
But we're learning to turn the pages of history,
To realise the mystery behind the man and his mortality, yeah.

But the word is alive, and alive is the word,
Existing, existing inside the mind,
But the heart sets the pace, puts the change into motion.
That's why the word is alive is the word.

Alive,
Alive.

Yeah, the word is alive,
Yeah, the word is alive,
Come on, come,
Yeah, the word is alive,
Oh, yeah, the word is alive, is alive.

But the word is alive, and alive is the word,
Existing, existing inside the mind,
But the heart sets the pace, puts the change into motion.
That's why the word is alive is the word,
But the word is alive, and alive is the word,
Existing, existing inside the mind,
But the heart sets the pace, puts the change into motion.
That's why the word is alive is the word, is the word.
