The pills wear off, the clock runs slow There's tears on a window-pane Your mind has no good place to go Whatever was said remains And it all goes wrong when the redness comes You've got to have a word with yourself Don't take it out on the one you love Get your head up, gonna rise above
And we'll rise where shadows fall And we'll fly where money crawls Looking out for a higher love Not gonno fall, gonna rise above
And we'll rise where shadows fall Till the pain can't touch you at all Crazy things you were thinking of Rise above, rise above
Through the downtime of your lifetime Time runs right through your hands It's hard to throw yourself a lifeline Find the ground on which you stand And you close your eyes when the darkness comes You feel someone there by your side There's a hundred ways to talk of love Get your heed up, gonna rise above
And we'll rise where shadows fall And we'll fly where money crawls Looking out for a higher love Not gonna fall, gonna rise above
And we'll rise where shadows fall Till the pain can't touch you at all Crazy things you were thinking of Rise above, rise above
