Lyrics Rise - Nine Lashes

Rise

I remember all too well
Just wishing for the sun
Yet holding onto darkness
And I remember calling out
To break into the dawn
And I remember all too well
Wishing that I could find
A place to be and live and breath
And forget what lies behind
But I still had the night, I still had the night
I know how far you can fall
And all the ways the heart grows colder
And there’s no way that I’m leaving you here just to die
Give up the fight only to fly making your way back home
And I believe there’s more to the story
Than all the ways a man can fall
So rise with me, the dawn is approaching now
Everybody knows this well
That the darkness comes for all
Hoping to kill off everything
That the light would call its own
But I refuse to fall, I refuse to fall
Breaking forth, never gonna be another casualty
Never gonna fade in the dark after losing faith
Cause I have known the light and I will never die
I know how far you can fall
And all the ways the heart grows colder
And there’s no way that I’m leaving you here just to die
Give up the fight only to fly, making your way back home
And I believe there’s more to the story
Than all the ways a man can fall
So rise with me, the dawn is approaching now
Never let go, just follow me home
I don’t want to leave you here in the dark
It’s getting harder to find your way through the night, I know, I know
Just run to the light, I promise you’ll find
A place where you can see the sun in the sky
But you’ll never fly when holding a heart made of stone
Guitar solo
I know how far you can fall
And all the ways the heart grows colder
And there’s no way that I’m leaving you here just to die
And I believe there’s more to the story
Than all the ways a man can fall
So rise with me, our God is approaching now
