"We Rise" lyrics

"We Rise"

I'm trying to explain
I feel it through my veins
Can it all remain?
I try to understand
The ways to comprehend
My heart don't beat no more
For you

I tried to talk
Oh man, I talked
You don't listen
It's like I'm whispering, ooh
For years and years, I tried to change
And turn it all around
But you don't listen
Don't listen, ah

I stepped too far away this time
I have been cornered
I went too far, oh yes I know
Light is off, and all is gone
What have I done?

I turned to liquid and I sank
Into the water
And hell, I felt like I was slaughtered

I tried to talk, oh man, I talked
But you don't listen
It's like I'm whispering, ooh
For years and years I tried to change
And turn it all around
But you don't listen
Don't listen, oh

I tried to talk, oh man, I talked
But you don't listen
It's like I'm whispering, ooh
For years and years I tried to change
And turn it all around
But you don't listen
Don't listen, oh

We went too far again this time
We haven't cornered
We went too far, oh how we know

Masks are off
Show is done
I drowned myself into the water
Burning skin, when will we rise?
We rise

We rise
We rise
We rise
We rise
