Dm
Life is an illusion

Bb
Time a mere delusion

    Dm
The cage is a creation

   Bb
Of someone‘s imagination

C                 Am                     Gm
If life makes you glow, then glow like a star

                             Dm
You’re the night, you’re the day

        Bb   C           Dm        C   Dm
Own the sky, live in the clouds, defy gravity
[Verse 2]
Dm                          Bb
A sign, an aberration, your road down to damnation

       Dm                    Bb
When a restroom illustration predicts the tribulation

C                       Am              Gm
Let the dreams give you hope, live in a dream

            A Dm
Let the music flow

          Bb   C               Dm
With your eyes closed from the vast garden of stars
[Pre Chorus]
C    F   Bb
Sing one rhyme,

     F       C
Wait for the punch line

          F   Gm
The notes are blind

         F         Bb  C
But they know when you sing and
[Chorus]
Dm
Smile

F       Bb     C
Life is better alive

        Gm            F
It is a dumb thing to say,

        Bb         C    Dm
But the fact won’t wane away

F         Bb         C
Sing with someone today

          Gm           F            Bb
When your team makes a game winning goal,

    C        Em
Get ready to sing

    G   C        D
Lalalalalalalalalala

       Am     G     C     D Em
With a friend who’s right beside you

Lalalalalalalalalala

With the friends beside you
[Bridge 1]
Cm           Gm                    Ab              Eb    Bb
Time - every light on the blue sky night will beautify

Cm                       Gm             Ab                  F
Time - cast coins in the waterfall, two coins, one for each eye

Dm             Am              F              C
Time - the icy tingle of empty vapour on your hand

Dm            Am              Bb                G
Time - a tiny crack’s a grand canyon in its command

C    F   Bb
Just one line,

     F          C
Sing with a feeling

     F    Gm
Turn back time

     F        Bb    C
Make all your stars align

    F    Bb                            C
The only thing you need, the vanity of happiness

             F Gm
When friends align

          F      Bb  C
They sing in the key of…
[Chorus]

Life is better alive

If the wall smiles back you’re alive, and ready to
