Song Title: Rise

Lyrics:

Verse 1:
It’s the end of the world
As we’ve known it
We can’t wash our hands of this war
It’s a race against time
it always has been
Maybe that’s the real crime

Pre-chorus:
I don’t wanna, run in circles anymore...

Chorus:
What if we all slow down
‘Cause there’s no turning back now
And everything’s changing, everything’s changing so fast
It feels like there’s no way out
Of this burning house
When the flames are gone, and ashes are all we have left from the past
Somehow we’ll rise, we’ll rise,
We’ll rise

Verse 2:
This time next year
It’ll all be over
The smoke will have cleared
And as the embers still glow
I hope we never forget
How quickly we lost control

Pre-chorus:
I don’t wanna, run in circles anymore...

Chorus:
What if we all slow down
‘Cause there’s no turning back now
And everything’s changing, everything’s changing so fast
It feels like there’s no way out
Of this burning house
When the flames are gone, and ashes are all we have left from the past
Somehow we’ll rise, we’ll rise,
We’ll rise

Bridge
We’re all in this together,
We’re all in this together,
So let’s try to be better
Better for us

Chorus:
What if we all slow down
‘Cause there’s no turning back now
And everything’s changing, everything’s changing so fast
It feels like there’s no way out
Of this burning house
When everything’s gone, and ashes are all we have left from the past
Somehow we’ll rise, we’ll rise
Somehow we’ll rise, we’ll rise, we’ll rise
