The pills wear off, the clock runs slowThere's tears on a window-paneYour mind has no good place to goWhatever was said remainsAnd it all goes wrong when the redness comesYou've got to have a word with yourselfDon't take it out on the one you loveGet your head up, gonna rise aboveAnd we'll rise where shadows fallAnd we'll fly where money crawlsLooking out for a higher loveNot gonno fall, gonna rise aboveAnd we'll rise where shadows fallTill the pain can't touch you at allCrazy things you were thinking ofRise above, rise aboveThrough the downtime of your lifetimeTime runs right through your handsIt's hard to throw yourself a lifelineFind the ground on which you standAnd you close your eyes when the darkness comesYou feel someone there by your sideThere's a hundred ways to talk of loveGet your heed up, gonna rise aboveAnd we'll rise where shadows fallAnd we'll fly where money crawlsLooking out for a higher loveNot gonna fall, gonna rise aboveAnd we'll rise where shadows fallTill the pain can't touch you at allCrazy things you were thinking ofRise above, rise above
