Riff
Verse
We seek an end to the questions
A ladder to the sky
a children's dream where we never die
There is a fog through the canyon
a vapor in the keep
lulling us gently into sleep
And we will not wake ever
Unless we rise up early
Rise up early
Verse
They cast your brother as a demon
your lover as a whore
all manner of lies justify our wars
They sell the water in the well now
the stars in the sky
there's nothing so sacred that we won't buy
And it will not change ever
Unless we rise up early
Rise up early
Bridge
Rise up
Rise up
Rise up
Outro
There is a silince in the bedroom
A rustle in the hall
in the shadow of a love that became a wall
and it will not fall ever
