Rise Above lyrics

Rise above, rise above, rise above all the lies and hatred and new-fangled love, Could you find a way to turn this all around? wide awake, wide awake, wide awake As the morning turns another page and the anger lies sleeping one more day. But oh to be like you, a stranger to all we knew, to hold yourself above what Might be true. walk away, walk away, walk away turn your back on all that we Once made let the mountain rise upon this land. i don't know, i don't know, I don't know you could count the lives that have been lost but still your mind Rests firmly on your own. but oh to be like you, a stranger to all we know, To hold yourself above what might be true.
