rise above 2 - bono & the edge lyrics
[peter]
when the ones who run the firehouse
are the ones who start the fire
and the lawless make the laws
and every preacher is a liar
and the ones that d-mn the innocent
they own the nightly news
and front page
an old man said to me
“it’s not who but what you know
and knowledge isn’t wisdom without control
but still to be the changes that you want to see
they come slow
i know”
and you said, “rise above
open your eyes up”
and you said, “rise above”
but i can’t
i can’t
[arachne]
for every heart that bleeds
will color your world red
and the sorrow in the night
will be the blue you cannot shed
but your strength will be a vision
beyond visibility
and the gift you have within
will give you new eyes to see
and you can rise above
swing through the skies above
and you shall rise above
yourself
[mary jane]
know that i’ll be watching
know that i’ll be waiting
[peter]
standing on the precipice
i can’t soar away from this
[peter]
free your soul
rise above yourself and take control
you need to love
to release yourself
and rise above it all [mary jane & ensemble]
and you can rise above
open your eyes up
and you can rise above
yourself
[mary jane]
i will be there
you were never alone
inside your dreams
i’ve been watching and waiting [ensemble]
and you can rise above
open your eyes up
and you can rise above
yourself
[mary jane & ensemble]
and you can rise above
open your eyes to love
and you can rise above
yourself
[peter]
and every heart that bleeds
will color your world red
and the sorrow in the night
will be the blue you cannot shed
and your strength will be a vision
beyond visibility
and the gift you have before you
will give you new eyes to see
