War zone, surrounds me
Tried to hide, they found me
Lost in the DMZ
Another trapped soul in eternity
Eyes wide open, adrift on an endless sea
I'll search for light between the seams
I won't accept another's dreams
I'll rise
Rise over all my failings
Climb aboard, smooth sailing
These waters have been known, to take a man's heart, turn it into stone
It's easy to get lost when you're on your own
I'll search for light between the seams
I won't accept another's dreams
I'll rise
I'll rise, rise over all my failings
To heed my calling
I've seen so many try, to break the chains and pierce the eye
The war is on, to lay down is to die
I'll rise, rise over all
