Verse 1: P.T. Barnum]
You stumble through your days
Got your head hung low
Your skies a shade of grey
Like a zombie in a maze
You're asleep inside
But you can shake awake

[Pre-Chorus: P.T. Barnum]
'Cause you're just a dead man walking
Thinking that's your only option
But you can flip the switch and brighten up your darkest day
Sun is up and the color's blinding
Take the world and redefine it
Leave behind your narrow mind
You'll never be the same

[Pre-Chorus: P.T. Barnum]
Come alive, come alive
Go and light your light
Let it burn so bright
Reaching up
To the sky
And it's open wide
You're electrified

[Chorus: P.T. Barnum]
When the world becomes a fantasy
And you're more than you could ever be
'Cause you're dreaming with your eyes wide open
And you know you can't go back again
To the world that you were living in
'Cause you're dreaming with your eyes wide open
So, come alive!

[Verse 2: P.T. Barnum]
I see it in your eyes
You believe that lie
That you need to hide your face
Afraid to step outside
So you lock the door
But don't you stay that way

[Lettie Lutz]
No more living in those shadows
You and me, we know how that goes

[Lord of Leeds]
'Cause once you see it, oh you'll never, never be the same

[Both]
We will be the light that's turning
Bottle up but keep on shining

[All]
You can prove there's more to you

[P.T. Barnum]
You cannot be afraid

[Pre-Chorus: Ensemble]
Come alive, come alive
Go and light your light
Let it burn so bright
Reaching up
To the sky
And it's open wide
You're electrified

[Chorus: Ensemble]
When the world becomes a fantasy
And you're more than you could ever be
'Cause you're dreaming with your eyes wide open
And we know we can't go back again
To the world that we were living in
'Cause we're dreaming with our eyes wide open
So, come alive!

[Ensemble]
Come one!
Come all!
Come in!
Come on!

[Anne Wheeler]
To anyone who's bursting with a dream

[Ensemble]
Come one!
Come all!
You hear
The call

[P.T. Barnum]
To anyone who's searching for a way to break free

[Ensemble]
Break free!
Break free!

[Chorus: Ensemble and P.T. Barnum]
When the world becomes a fantasy
And you're more than you could ever be
'Cause you're dreaming with your eyes wide open
And we know we can't go back again
To the world that we were living in
'Cause we're dreaming with our eyes wide open
(Hey!)

[Chorus: Ensemble and P.T. Barnum]
When the world becomes a fantasy
And you're more than you could ever be
'Cause you're dreaming with your eyes wide open
And we know we can't go back again
To the world that we were living in
'Cause we're dreaming with our eyes wide open

[Outro: Ensemble and P.T. Barnum]
'Cause we're dreaming with our eyes wide open

So come alive! (Come alive!)

Lyrics

You stumble through your days
Got your head hung low
Your skies' a shade of grey
Like a zombie in a maze
You're asleep inside
But you can shake away

'Cause you're just a dead man walking
Thinking that's your only option
But you can flip the switch and brighten up your darkest day
Sun is up and the color's blinding
Take the world and redefine it
Leave behind your narrow mind
You'll never be the same

Come alive, come alive
Go and ride your light
Let it burn so bright
Reaching up
To the sky
And it's open wide
You're electrified

When the world becomes a fantasy
And you're more than you could ever be
'Cause you're dreaming with your eyes wide open
And you know you can't go back again
To the world that you were living in
'Cause you're dreaming with your eyes wide open
So, come alive!

I see it in your eyes
You believe that lie
That you need to hide your face
Afraid to step outside
So you lock the door
But don't you stay that way

No more living in those shadows
You and me we know how that goes

'Cause once you see it, oh you'll never, never be the same

We'll be the light that's shining
Bottle up and keep on trying

You can prove there's more to you

You cannot be afraid

Come alive, come alive
Go and ride your light
Let it burn so bright

To anyone who's searching for a way to break free

Break free!
Break free!

When the world becomes a fantasy
And you're more than you could ever be
'Cause you're dreaming with your eyes wide open
And we know we can't be go back again
To the world that we were living in
'Cause we're dreaming with our eyes wide open
(Hey!)

When the world becomes a fantasy
And you're more than you could ever be
'Cause you're dreaming with your eyes wide open
And we know we can't be go back again
To the world that we were living in
'Cause we're dreaming with our eyes wide open

'Cause we're dreaming with our eyes wide open

So come alive! (Come alive!) (Yeah!)

[Hugh Jackman]:

You stumble through your days,
Got your head hung low, your skies' a shade of grey.
Like a zombie in a maze,
You're asleep inside, but you can shake away.

Cause' you're just a dead man walking.
Thinking that's your only option,
But you can flip the switch and brighten up your darkest day.
Sun is up the colour's blinding, take a world re define it.
Leave behind your narrow mind, you'll never be the same.

Come alive.
Come alive.
Go and light your light,
Let it burn so bright.
Reaching up to the sky,
And it's open wide, you're electrified.

When the world becomes a fantasy
And you're more than you could ever be,
Cause you're dreaming
With your eyes wide open.
And you know you can't go back again
To the world that you were living in,
Cause you're dreaming
With your eyes wide open.

So come alive.

I see it in your eyes,
You believe that lie
That you need to hide your face.
Afraid to step outside,
So you lock the door
But don't you stay that way.

[Keala Settle]:

No we're living in no shadows,
You and me we know how that goes.

[Daniel Everidge]:

Cause once you see it oh,
You'll never, never be the same.

[Keala & Daniel]:

It will be the light's that shining,
Bottle up and keep on trying.
You can prove there's more to you.

[Hugh]:

You cannot be afraid.

[All]:

Come alive.
Come alive.
Go and light your light,
Let it burn so bright.
Reaching up to the sky,
And it's open wide, you're electrified.

When the world becomes a fantasy
And you're more than you could ever be,
Cause you're dreaming
With your eyes wide open.
And we know we can't go back again
To the world that we were living in,
Cause we're dreaming
With our eyes wide open.

So come alive.

Come on,
Come on,
Come here,
Come on.

[Zendaya]:

To anyone who's bursting with a dream.

[All]:

Come one,
Come all,
You hear the call.

[Hugh]:

To anyone who's searching
For a way to break free.
(Break free)

[All]:

And you're more than you could ever be,
Cause you're dreaming
With your eyes wide open.
And we know we can't go back again
To the world that we were living in,
Cause we're dreaming
With our eyes wide open.
(Hey!)

When the world becomes a fantasy
And you're more than you could ever be,
Cause you're dreaming
With your eyes wide open.
(Yeah, yeah)
And we know we can't go back again
To the world that we were living in,
Cause we're dreaming
With our eyes wide open.

Cause we're dreaming
With our eyes wide open.

So come alive.

A Million Dreams: "To the world I close my eyes to see."
Come Alive: "We're dreaming with our eyes wide open."
Why am I only now noticing this??

@jingc795

Omg ur right! 😲

@moonlight4903

I don't get it .. What does it mean ?

@ravenniandreadominguez6135

It means that on the part of A Million Dreams, all of those dreams is can only be seen on dreams (when you close ypur eyes or asleep) but on Come Alive, those dreams are becoming real and as time goes by, those dreams are already their reality (which was represented by wide eyes open)
