"Rise Up" lyrics

Rise up! rise up and stand for your life!
Rise up! rise up you have to fight!
Rise up! rise up don't say your goodbyes!
Rise up! stay strong and don't you break down!

I saw your suffering eyes, the wounds could tell no lies
But I refused to show you that I don't care at all
You say how much you need me, but never asked forgiveness
Now I feel so ashamed, that I was so full of hate

You are the air I'm breathing in every step I take
I will remain here sober if you promise you'll stay!

Don't break away
Tell me that we'll end this nightmare
Don't break away
Cause you will leave me blank and helpless

Now I can't feel my stomach, so lost and so afraid
Curled up with tears that choke me, so many thoughts of dread
Told me you'll never leave me and that you'll be okay
I guess I'm on my own now, please guide me through this hell!

I can't control my temper, I'm drowning in my soul!
Without you I am nothing, please don't just fade away!

Don't break away
Tell me that we'll end this nightmare
Don't break away
Cause you will leave me blank and helpless

Rise up! rise up and stand for your life!
Rise up! rise up you have to fight!
Rise up! rise up don't say your goodbyes!
Rise up! stay strong and don't you break down!

How could I hold my sister and tell her that you're gone?
That she would never feel the warmth of your love
I'm so afraid, I can't pretend, Don't let me take the reins!
You must come back!

Don't break away
Tell me that we'll end this nightmare
Don't break away
Cause you will leave me blank and helpless
