lyrics

I want to rise above the crowd
I want to rise above the scene
I want to rise above this now
This foolish ignorance of dreams
I don’t want to know who I will be
Or if I ever should become
I want to rise above the scene
I want to rise above it all

I don’t want to somebody’s hand
Like it’s a rock firm in the stream
I don’t want tell you that I’ve loved
Until I know what it all means
I need to know what I’m to lose
Before I ever try to hold
I want to rise above your love
I want to rise above it all

But I’ve got dreams so meant for breaking
And no one feels inclined to break my fall
Oh I’ve got kindness for the taking
They took it all
There’s a world dancing before me
But I’ve so little time to hear its call
I want to rise above this feeling
I want to rise above it all

I want to hear Nick, Leonard, Christie
I want to know the things they’ve seen
If the world was like their songs
I could decipher what it means
I want to know just how the time goes
With no bad thoughts caught in between
I want to rise above this world
I want to rise above it all
I want to rise above this world
I want to rise above it all, oh no
I want to rise above this world
I want to rise above and rise above and rise above it all
