Poem
I’m rising from the ruins Tonight, tonight, tonight Tragedy’s a-brewing I can’t peaceably fight I’m riding the turbulent storm I’m embracing you, so warm I’m screwing up greatly today I’m wrecked up lately in dismay I’m in poverty when it came to loving you so true Lost it all, lost it all until I noticed without a clue I’ve been just dust in the breeze, blowing at ease Cease from calling out to me and being a total tease I will rise, I will rise, I will rise…love dries and dies I was once ashes on the gravel and ground You will see with your two glistening eyes I was once dust and ruins without a sound I will rise, I will rise beyond the ruthless lies Abide by my side and subside from the river of remnants Let’s go to the evanescent pastures and remember no more of our sins and our spirit eventually repents… I’m rising from the ruins Tonight, tonight, tonight Tragedy’s a-brewing I can’t peaceably fight I’m riding the turbulent storm I’m embracing you, so warm I’m screwing up greatly today I’m wrecked up lately in dismay I’m rising from the ruins Tonight, tonight, tonight Tragedy’s a-brewing I can’t peaceably fight I’m riding the turbulent storm I’m embracing you, so warm I’m screwing up greatly today I’m wrecked up lately in dismay I’m rising from the ruins Tonight, tonight, tonight I’m rising from the ruins Tonight, tonight, tonight I’m rising from the ruins Tonight, tonight, tonight I’m in misery’s company, but I figured we’d be happier elsewhere in store Lost it all, lost it all until I noticed we were fading into the vast grays I’ve been just dust in the breeze, blowing until we couldn’t bear it anymore The mistiness of sorrows was amongst us nowadays; we now give praise I will rise, I will rise, I will rise…love dries and dies I was once ashes on the gravel and ground You will see with your two glistening eyes I was once dust and ruins without a sound I will rise, I will rise beyond the ruthless lies Abide by my side and subside from the river of remnants Let’s go to the evanescent pastures and remember no more of our sins and our spirit eventually repents… I’m rising from the ruins Tonight, tonight, tonight Tragedy’s a-brewing I can’t peaceably fight I’m riding the turbulent storm I’m embracing you, so warm I’m screwing up greatly today I’m wrecked up lately in dismay I’m rising from the ruins Tonight, tonight, tonight Tragedy’s a-brewing I can’t peaceably fight I’m riding the turbulent storm I’m embracing you, so warm I’m screwing up greatly today I’m wrecked up lately in dismay I’m rising from the ruins Tonight, tonight, tonight I’m rising from the ruins Tonight, tonight, tonight I’m rising from the ruins Tonight, tonight, tonight We will stand mighty and strong We will belong all along, all along We will know what’s right and wrong We will be everlasting like a hymnal song We will rise from the ruins We will rise from the ruins Tragedy in reverse is a-brewing Tragedy in reverse is a-brewing… God knows what we’re truly doing… We’re renewing our rejoicing voice Reimbursing our happiness — a choice Us humans can restore in our verse Life is a gift and a curse, gift and a curse I’m rising from the ruins tonight, tonight and tragedy is in reverse… We rose from the ruins Brew away the lonesome blues We rose from our sins Fly away from the horrid news I’m rising from the ruins Tonight, tonight, tonight I can peaceably fight deep inside With our resilient might on our side…
