Stay Alive
José González Lyrics
There's a rhythm in rush these days
Where the lights don't move and the colors don't fade
Leaves you empty with nothing but dreams
In a world gone shallow
In a world gone lean
Sometimes there's things a man cannot know
Gears won't turn and the leaves won't grow
There's no place to run and no gasoline
Engine won't turn
And the train won't leave
Engines won't turn and the train won't leave
I will stay with you tonight
Hold you close 'til the morning light
In the morning watch a new day rise
We'll do whatever just to stay alive
We'll do whatever just to stay alive
Well the way I feel is the way I write
It isn't like the thoughts of the man who lies
There is a truth and it's on our side
Dawn is coming
Open your eyes
Look into the sun as the new days rise
And I will wait for you tonight
You're here forever and you're by my side
I've been waiting all my life
To feel your heart as it's keeping time
We'll do whatever just to stay alive
Dawn is coming
Open your eyes
Dawn is coming
Open your eyes
Dawn is coming
Open your eyes
Dawn is coming
Open your eyes
Look into the sun as the new days rise
There's a rhythm in rush these days
Where the lights don't move and the colors don't fade
Leaves you empty with nothing but dreams
In a world gone shallow
In a world gone lean
But there is a truth and it's on our side
Dawn is coming open your eyes
Look into the sun as a new days rise

Where the lights don't move and the colors don't fade
Leaves you empty with nothing but dreams
In a world gone shallow
In a world gone lean
Sometimes there's things a man cannot know
for gears won't turn and the leaves won't grow
There's no place to run and no gasoline
Engines won't turn and the train won't leave

I will stay with you tonight
Hold you close 'til the morning light
In the morning watch a new day rise
We'll do whatever just to stay alive

Its 2020, and this song still gives me comfort in the most magical way. Secret Life of Walter Mitty will forever be my favorite movie.
Fun Tech and Talk
It is always my favourite song

100%. Find this movie becomes more and more relatable as I move along through life. When day dreams feel more real then life itself.
D. Hulen
It was a great movie, very underrated

I am a nurse taking care of covid patients. Sometimes I feel like giving up. Like I can't do it. But everytime I play this song before going to Work, it gave me strength to serve and be the nurse my patient needs. Be the light in their darkness and their hope through this trying times.

My heart goes out to the 25+ million children that have starved in the 3rd world due to government lockdowns. They didn’t deserve this.
