Rise Up

I'm a pretender, comatose I write forever Hell or high water, it's only the drink that makes it better Try to convince you, I've got one hand on the wheel Why work hard to make a living, when it's easier to steal? On and on and on it goes Into the darkness, it's too late for you for light It's only in the backstreet shadows, you begin to see the light It's getting faster as these hours turn into miles We keep this dream together just to keep these thoughts alive On and on and on it goes Rise Up, Rise Up over me This trust you don't believe in, it's faith you need to see Rise Up, Rise Up over me Cause it's hard to know about freedom, unless you ain't been free Are you looking for cover? Or a way to drift apart? From this moment you keep chasing Just to fake a brand new start Are we hiding? Is there none left? 'Cause it might be hard but it's harder than it needs to be Rise Up, Rise Up over me This trust you don't believe in, it's faith you need to see Rise Up, Rise Up over me Cause it's hard to know about freedom, unless you ain't been free Rise Up, Rise Up over me Rise Up, Rise Up over me Rise Up, Rise Up Rise Up over me 'Cause it's harder than it needs to be
