Rise

Soul survivor on the savage street Doing time on the hot concrete Keep the beat with worn down shoes Roll the dice and let them ride snake eyes Past the point of no return Past the rose, fires burn Ash to asp Dust to dusk Face to face Faith, sweet faith Air, cool air Save me where no saviour dare go This time, do the paces on The satin sheets Comb the darkness for Some light relief Darkness has come And we're looking so finе Darkly as we stand in line In search of thе outstanding Of no return Past the rose, fires burn Wine to water Flesh to stone Point to vein At point blank range Past the sneer and evil eye Past the you and past the eye Beyond reason, past despair Past the hot house flowers rare Past the present, placed upon the throne Of fool's golden desires There is fire Fallen angels with a lavish streak Doing time in the driver's seat Don't graze your cheek or set your sights too low Walk on air Faith, sweet faith Forge me a passport to forge new frontiers Drop me a line to tow myself in Give me an inch where I might place a foot Give me a minute and I'll take forever Yes, give me today and I'll take tomorrow And the day after, after, after, after Show to me so I will know That there is somewhere to go After, after An ox for the people to ride After, after, after
