Rise

Collapsed empires like broken tiles
Snow on the ground, a winter’s sky
I open the door and the world flows by

Pavements, streets and yesterday news
Tomorrows hurting in today’s blues
My realities are these tender rules

Every high and low
Every near and far
Goodbye, hello, everybody

Come together come together
Come together now
Put your loneliness in mine and RISE

No major headlines, no big news day
Just the wheels turning forward and backwards
And backwards and forwards
Day after day, as the blue sky fades
Every high and low
Every near and far
Goodbye, hello, everybody

Come together come together
Come together now
Put your loneliness in mine and RISE

Put your arms around me
Everything’s allright
You and I, together we will RISE
