Rising, Rising

Lift up your eyes, child Lift up your arms, you are home I know you're hurt, child But you can't do this on your own And I can see your blood flow And I can feel your hurt now Did you think I'd let you be alone? And I can hear your sorrow Playing through the airways I can tell your breath flows with my own I will find you somehow Let me be the salt in your wounds Clean you from the inside All your love is gone now I've never been a coward, my dear But I'm afraid of what you are Lift up your eyes, child Lift up your arms, you are home I know you're hurt, child But you can't do this on your own ... I'll untie you From the strings caught in your wings And I'll try to Fill in the gaps, all of the cracks they left behind ...
