“The Greatest Showman” Challenge – Day 3

Challenge, Day 3: “Come Alive”

And here it is, the invitation to move, to do something, to live!

This is the third day of the challenge and we are building a nice path. A path that starts from ourselves with “This is Me.” A path that invites us to use all our passion and courage with “This is the Greatest Show.” A path that speaks of one of the most beautiful invitations “Come Alive”. Live!

Try to play back the three pieces in sequence.

This song shows very well the risk to which we are all exposed. The risk of not taking control of our lives. The risk of letting the days flow while we are busy doing we don’t know what exactly. The risk of not living a life full of the meaning we really want to give it. The risk to abandon ourselves to our habits. The risk of thinking that we have only one choice.

So let’s look for a switch to illuminate our dark days.

And as the song says, let’s take the world and redefine it!

Come Alive

Hugh Jackman, Keala Settle, Daniel Everidge, Zendaya, The Greatest Showman Ensemble

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 turning. Bottle up and keep on shining. 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. 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 be go back again. To the world that we were living in. ‘Cause we’re dreaming with our eyes wide open. So, come alive!

Come one! Come all! Come in! Come on! To anyone who’s bursting with a dream. Come one! Come all! You hear. The call. 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!)
