I'm Alive

I'm Alive is a song featured in Laryngitis and later 100. It is performed by Jack Harmon. It was originally performed by Aaron Tveit, the actor who plays Jack, in the musical, Next to Normal. Jack would bring the song back during 100, with the help of his cousins, Davis and Jude, Puck, Daniel and Trevor.

Context
This was song Jack chose to sing during the "Find Your Voice" assignment as "I [Jack] am my voice. I am the lone wolf of talent amongst the boys and most of the girls. And I feed on other peoples’ misery, so it works out fine."

Lyrics (Laryngitis version)
Jack: I am what you want me to be, and I’m your worst fear, you’ll find it in me…Come closer…Come closer…

''I am more than memory, I am what might be, I am mystery. You know me, so show me. When I appear it’s not so clear if I’m a simple spirit or I’m flesh and blood.''

''But I’m alive, I’m alive, I am so alive, and I feed on the fear that’s behind your eyes. And I need you to need me, it’s no surprise…I’m alive, so alive, I’m alive. ''

''I am flame and I am fire, I am destruction, decay, and desire. I’ll hurt you, I’ll heal you. I’m your wish, your dream come true, and I am your darkest nightmare too. I’ve shown you, I own you.''

''And though you made me, you can’t change me, I’m the perfect stranger who knows you too well. ''

''But I’m alive, I’m alive I am so alive, and I’ll tell you the truth if you let me try. You’re alive, I’m alive, and I’ll show you why I’m alive, so alive…''

I''’m alive! I’m right behind you. You say forget but I’ll remind you. You can try to hide but you know that I will find you.''

''‘Cause if you won’t grieve me, you won’t leave me behind…Oh, how, oh…Woah! Woah! ''

''No, no, no, I’m alive, I’m alive, I am so alive. If you climb on my back then we both can fly. If you try to deny me, I’ll never die! ''

I’m alive, so alive…I’m alive…Yeah, yeah…I’m alive…I’m alive…I’m alive!
