Grey light fighting on through once again
Tell me now, how am I not supposed to bend
'Cause on the run the fire in my heart grows cold
But, it's alright, I never felt quite at home
Gonna lay my ear to the ground
And listen for the sound
Of better days to come
And howl in the passing wind
You won't find me giving in
Gotta rise above
And memories now play of who I used to be
Old and broken like the branches of an ancient tree
But, I'm walking along this crooked path I've made
It may not mean much, but I'm gonna live it my way
Gonna break out of this crowd
Make my mark somehow
There's better days to come
Can't count all the times I've been
On the edge of giving in
Gotta rise above
Gonna lay my ear to the ground
And listen for the sound
Of better days to come
And howl in the passing wind
You won't find me giving in
Gotta rise above
