lyrics

I’ve been playin’ a sick man’s part, I’ve been living in another world
My mind tapered down, razor sharp, it’s just a weapon to defend my desire
Like waking up from a long nightmare, takes a minute just to comprehend
I find I’m crippled but I don’t even care, we’re all carrying the sacred fire

I was shut in, I was broken down, but I’ve been given another chance
Lost my way and run aground, but look at where I washed ashore
All the sounds been turned up loud, dark night is just the mistress of the dawn
I see a parade where I once saw a crowd, this is what I’m living for

I don’t think I’m gonna fall in love again
No it doesn’t really seem that wise
Next time love wanders into my life
I’m gonna rise, rise, rise.

As many trees upon the mountain/ as stars up in the sky
Silver coins at the bottom of the fountain/to live is to try

All I wanted was to be heard, just one voice above the rest
But I went to sing and I couldn’t form a word, something choking me like a wire
I believed that the privilege was mine, ‘til I was forced to hear another voice
I finally learned after all this time, I’m lucky just to join in the choir

But it ain’t a miracle, no it ain’t divine, it’s as simple as taking a breath
Nothing’s lost, so there’s nothing to find, the fruit of the orchard hangs low
The full sun it doesn’t have to burn, the full moon doesn’t have to blind
There’s everything to gain, an infinity to learn, if I only could figure out how to let go

I don’t think I’m gonna fall in love again
No it doesn’t really seem that wise
Next time love wanders into my life
I’m gonna rise, rise, rise.

As many trees upon the mountain/ as stars up in the sky
Silver coins at the bottom of the fountain/to live is to try
