We Rise

I’m trying to explain
I feel it through my veins
Can it all remain

I try to understand
Your ways to comprehend
But my heart don’t beat no more
For you

I tried to talk, and man I talked
But you don’t listen
It’s like I’m whispering

For years and years, I tried to change
And turn it all around
But you don’t listen
Don’t listen

I stepped too far away this time
I have been cornered
I went too far – oh yes I know
Light is off and all is gone
What have I done

I turned to liquid and I sank into the water
And hell I felt like I was slaughtered

I tried to talk, and man I talked
But you don’t listen
It’s like I’m whispering

For years and years, I tried to change
And turn it all around
But you don’t listen
Don’t listen

We went too far again this time
We have been cornered
We went too far - oh hell we know
Masks are off - show is done
I drowned myself into the water

Burning skin
When will we rise?
We rise
