Rise Up -

You seek an end to the questions

A ladder to the sky

A children’s dream where we never die

There is a fog in the canyon

A vapor in the keep

Lulling us gently into sleep

And we will not wake ever

Unless we rise up early

Rise up early

They cast your brother as a demon

Your lover as a whore

All manner of lies justify our wars

They sell the water in the well now

The stars in the sky

There’s nothing so sacred that we won’t buy

And it will not change ever

Unless we rise up early

Rise up early

Rise up, rise up

There is a silence in the bedroom

A rustle in the hall

In the shadow of a love that became a wall

And it will not fall ever
