Lyrics

The Energy (Bonus Track)

You make it up as you go along
Why pretend that you're something that you're not?
I believe in you and always will
Ever since you told me you're for real

Inside, emotional mood swing soon collide
Now gather up all your tenacity
Take my hand 'cause I set you free

Who cares who's there to stare
And tell you how I look?
I'm not even sure they know you by name
Who cares who's there to share what they think of you?
Everybody here plays the same fucking games

Alright, alright, alright
You're such an energy
Alright, alright, alright
You're such an energy
Let me see you fly
Put your fist up in the air

Alive, that's how I want you to feel tonight
Live, you're only here once, so do it well
Fight, you all need to rise up and give them hell
There is no reason to wonder if you should
Go tell them you can't be bought or sold
Break your silence and tell them who you are
'Cause they're all witness to a shooting star

Who cares who's there to stare
And tell you how I look?
I'm not even sure they know you by name
Who cares who's there to share what they think of you?
Everybody here plays the same fucking games

Alright, alright, alright
You're such an energy
Alright, alright, alright
You're such an energy
Let me see you fly
Put your fist up in the air

Tell me how you feel is strong enough
Tell me, 'cause all eyes are on you now, yeah

Who cares who's there to stare
And tell you how I look?
I'm not even sure they know you by name
Who cares who's there to share what they think of you?
Everybody here plays the same fucking games

Alright, alright, alright
You're such an energy
Alright, alright, alright
You're such an energy
Let me see you fly
Put your fist up in the air

You're such an energy
Whoa, you're an energy
Yeah, you're such an energy
