Rise Up

 

Sometimes this world, 

It may drag you down,

And it feels your voice

Just can’t be found,

And hearts of steel 

Trample your burning flame,

Quenched beneath the earth 

where no one knows your name. 

 

Chorus

So Rise up my friend,

Turn your collar to the wind,

Breathe in slow, breathe in deep,

There’s no hill too steep,

So Rise up my friend.

 

Hoping someone’s listing,

An enemy or a friend, 

You just don’t care

So long as someone’s there

I look into your eyes,

And I see the pain behind, 

Noone sees the colors that you see,

 

Chorus Repeat

Come on now ………. 

Go

 

A mother’s child, 

A father’s hand,

Disperse before me,

Like a wave upon the sea,

A neighbor cries,

The old man dies,

A world of pain,

And who’s to blame.

 

But I was wrong,

I should’ve let you go,

But I was wrong,

I should’ve let you go

Oh go now. 

 

We love to love,

The pain of love,

The journey’s long,

Where do we belong,

And we grow old,

Our heart’s unfold,

In the street’s of crime,

My blood is wine. 

 

But I was wrong,

I should’ve let you go,

But I was wrong,

I should’ve let you go

Oh go now. 

 

And all of my life,

Reaching for you,

No bed of roses,

No pleasure dome. 

 

But I was wrong,

I should’ve let you go,

But I was wrong,

I should’ve let you go

Oh go now. 

BLUE

I walk these streets praying for the day to end,

And I scan the crowds looking for only one face,

And I find it there in some else’s stare,

It’s the closet I can get you,  I’m Blue.

 

These smoke etched bars they surround me babe,

And I scan the crowds still looking for only face, 

And I found it there in some else’s stare

It’s the closet I can get you,  I’m Blue.

 

I’ve worn the souls of my shoes on the pave of your street,

And I’ve even bled all the cafes dry,

I put your number in a million times,

But I couldn’t hit send, no I couldn’t hit send.

 

I don’t know if I ever see you again

I don’t know when

I don’t know

 

And I been lying to myself for too long know

Believing everyone and everything is true,

And I don’t know if this love or is this pride,

I’m caught in the under tide, I’m Blue

I’m caught in the under tide, I’m Blue
