Lyrics of 'Rise'
When the days grow cold
In this dead gray town
All the doors stay closed
Silence breaks the sound
Of your heartbeat
You're just 19... feeling old
Rise up
Reach up to the sun till we drop
Rise up
Never going down, down, down, don't stop
Rise up
Lift your eyes and climb to the top
Rise up
Together
Winter turns to Spring
All our friends are gone
When the church bells start to ring
No one comes to sing
In the choir
Holding flowers
No one brings
Rise up
Reach up to the sun till we drop
Rise up
Never going down, down, down, don't stop
Rise up
Lift your eyes and climb to the top
Rise up
Together
There's a place I know
Where us misfits go
In the candlelight at night
Black roses grow
Through the darkness
On our journey to the light
Rise up
Reach up to the sun till we drop
Rise up
Never going down, down, down, don't stop
Rise up
Lift your eyes and climb to the top
Rise up
Together
Rise up... oh... riseA few words for Rasmus
