Rise Above

Too much time we let pass by

Broken dreams and idle lives

Waiting on the way it ought to be

Pushing forward, falling back

Counting scars and losing track

Afraid to crash we never spread our wings

And with every chance we take we find a reason

To give up on the hope that we all need



Maybe today we all will rise

Maybe today we all will rise

Above the mistakes that we've made

Sometimes we've got to face the fall

Before we rise above it all



Can't give up on second tries

Leave the pride that blinds our eyes

No one taught us how to say goodbye

Now's the time for broken hearts

Embrace today a brand new start

Leave the past and let love lead the way

And with every chance we take we find a reason

To give up on the hope that we all need



Maybe today we all will rise

Maybe today we all will rise

Above the mistakes that we've made

Sometimes we've got to face the fall

Before we rise above it all



If we just lived like we mean it

If we loved even when we don't feel it

We would suffer for a reason

And see there is more to who we are



Maybe today we all will rise

Maybe today we all will rise



Maybe today we all will rise

Maybe today we all will rise

Above the mistakes that we've made

Sometimes we've got to face the fall

Before we rise above it all

Rise above it all

Rise above it all
