RISE
Children of our only sun
Assembling by the call of the drum for millenia (for millenia)
Movement in the way of God
Pushed back, in the name of God for millenia
And when they've had enough
They trade these laws for love
And awaken into one
Into one (one, lah-tee-dah)
Rise
While the lies to divide and control
Some rights were born bright and universal
And will take a stroner hold
"All we need is a minority keen on spreading the brushfire in the minds of men"
And when you've had enough
You trade these laws for love and awaken into one
And when everybody jumped inside the room
All at, all at once we felt the very Earth move
Rise
(Narration)
"Look within, within is the fountain of good
And it will ever bubble up, if thought will ever look"
And when you've had enough
I think I've had enough
And when we've had enough
Rise
FOOTPRINTS
We are the Footprints of these souls
In a chase over pavement and stone
On a path where no pattern is known
Or ending seems to show
Through every page of the city scape
Through the crowds, a number of doorways
As the floor shakes into late hours we all hear them sing
Oh we live like never, yeah we live forever
If only for one night
(ooh one night)
Underground as the cabin sways
The hum of the tracks can't cover the laughter
Of the passengers who are only trying to get home
And as we chase them on to firmer ground
The cold air bites, but no slowing down
The melody warms, we carry as kings
And we still hear them sing
Oh we live like never, yeah we live forever
If only for one night
Oh we live like never, yeah we live forever
As they all take the photographs in their mind
And we dance up the sunrise
And they may, they might
Sing it every night:
"We live forever..."
And they may, they might
If only for one night:
"We live forever..."
We live like never
We live forever
If only for one night
We live like never
We live forever
As they all take the photographs in their mind
And we dance up the sunrise
CONCESSIONS
This one is gonna scar, but they don't they all
Watch the tape back to the start, watch our heroes fall
From lonely to lover, losing their cover
It's all nice
As I follow you in just to see what the wind provides
And hearts will be betrayed, one of many ways
No matter how the fight to keep hope alive
Hearts will be betrayed, make no mistake
Push or pull away, hold identity
Painting our pictures and hanging them up so high
While all the of the colors begin to cover our eyes
And so we follow the wind and yet still pretend we drive
And hearts will be betrayed, one of many ways
No matter how the fight to keep hope alive
Hearts will be betrayed, and we're all in to win, but dare we admit the time?
Kicking and screaming, won't go down easy, any way seeking
To keep hope alive
Just another day in the love we make
And I feel the quite, but it's time we admit this destiny
That hearts will be betrayed, maybe every day
But what would be a life, to let you pass by
Hearts will be betrayed, and I'll take the bait
I'm not one to pretend
COME BACK
Will work for food to get connected
What you'd do... to get, to get out your message
Deeper than bone, just from your tone I hear levees breaking
And I know, I know – you'd go it alone. But we came here to pull you along
Safety nets and sure bets fill you up with empty
Maybe what your heart needs is a wreckless driver
And I've heard all of the calls to walk away
But when it wants, what it wants, you take (you take, you take)
And we're not gonna come back, we're not gonna come back
So forget about your program, we're off to make
Friends with monsters and the authors of our fate
And we won't be, no we won't be back
We're not gonna come back, we're not gonna come back
Forget about your program, no we're not gonna...
We're not gonna come back, we're not gonna come back
So forget about your program, we're off to make
Friends with monsters and the authors of our fate
And we won't be, no we won't be back
No we're not gonna, no we're not gonna, no we're not gonna, no.
FIT TO BE
Well in the wake now, I give myself a shave
And I put my best on
A cocktail and one last song
I stay a little too late
And walking by on every sidewalk
All these figures not fit to be you
And as I drive through city lights
I fail to remember how we ever fell out
Am in the eye of the storm, am I just to wait for the fever to break?
I keep my head, but still I let your image sway in front of me
And walking by on every sidewalk
All these figures not fit to be you
And as I fight the urge to dial
I dare to imagine what we'd make of this night
Because it's way too quiet
And walking by...
All these figures not...
And as I try to change my mind
All these figures...
Yeah you might be a wayard fantasy and I can't shake that drug
I still take that drug
Yeah you might be a wayard fantasy and I can't shake that drug
I still take that drug
THE GHOSTS ARE LIVELY
Home again late, can't help but survey once permanent fixtures fade to akward space
And echo into play the sounds here once made
And the paths one might take
And the quiet as I shut the light
The ghosts are lively in this house
And I do best to talk them down
Always asking where I'm off to like a child with no clue
As the days the nights exchange I'm keeping things arranged as patiently, while they entertain
And sharing each sunrise taht we bathe in to untie these tangles not inclined to fall away
The ghosts are lively in this house
They keep asking where I'm off to now
And they'll find out real soon, as I make good on their rescue
Where are you off to now?
COME BACK INTRO (No Lyrics)
