It took two hours, but now I'm here
Another room, so dry your tears
While in the darkness, a secret kept
When pushed to shove, I'd rise again
I felt the pain, then had to lose
A life gone by, but not abused
Although I slept, stuck in my bed
I'd rise again, I'd rise again
No one needs to see to know that they believe
In things that can remain unsaid
From silence to the truth with lies that get confused
We'll let them go to rise again
So far from home, I still came back
With every test, defences hacked
They took their toll, then left me spent
I tried my best... to rise again
Beyond the highway, I took the hit
It wasn't easy, but nothing is
When all was hopeless, I made a plan
I'd rise again, I'd rise again
No one needs to see to know that they believe
In things that can remain unsaid
From silence to the truth with lies that get confused
We'll let them go to rise again
We'll rise again, we'll rise again
In pictures all painted by senses and phrases
Relived and imperfectly kept while they're taken
Filling in holes with the patchworks we shoulder
These lines slowly fade as we start growing older again
We'll rise again
No one needs to see to know that they believe
In things that can remain unsaid
From silence to the truth with lies that get confused
We'll let them go to rise again
We'll rise again, we'll rise again
So many years... but I've returned
With nothing lost, there's nothing learned
Would I go back? well that depends
To make it here, I'd rise again
To make it here, I'd rise again
