Cracking walls inside my head With a bottle full of rain I promised to the coaster I wouldn’t tear it up again Flick a peanut, break a glass I wish I didn’t sleep at Mass And everything is closing up Yet again I come in last
I saw it in a dream It was another time Everything was blue Everything was fine
And you were always there And I could see clear I was always yours You were always mine Rise above it Rise above it Rise above it
I see her on the ceiling She’s staring down in her gown I had to make allowances Between my love and going out
Now everything is closing up The last call is well asleep At gigs I dance with a Blue Nun Now heartburn is going cheap I saw it in a dream It was another time And everything was true Everything sublime
You were always there And I could see clear I was always yours You were always mine
Rise above it Rise above it
Rise above it I saw it in a dreamIt was another timeEverything was true
Everything sublime You were always there And I could see clear I was always yours You were always mine
Rise above it Rise above it Rise above it Rise above it Rise above, Rise above it Rise above, Rise above it Rise above, Rise above it Rise above, Rise above it Rise above, Rise above it
I wouldn’t tear it up again I wouldn’t tear it up again I wouldn’t tear it up again I wouldn’t tear it up again
