You can't take him down

He's all around

With no way out

And you can't remember how

That other world made sense

And everything weighed less

But you can't and you won't so you keep on waiting

When you tell me

You'd never forgive yourself

Well you tell me

You're under an awful spell

More than any ancient question, I wonder

If you remember your intention, from underneath?

You built this home

It's what you know

It's all you own

And you live there all alone

Together in silence

The echo of violence

That never leaves

And you can't and you won't and you keep on waiting

When you tell me

You'd never forgive yourself

Well you tell me

You're under an awful spell

More than any ancient question, I wonder

If you remember your intention, from underneath?

Cus it's a bright and cold December, and the untracked snow

Whispers lightly to surrender and come back home

Take your grandfather's ring and your cup of stars

Skeleton heart slipping through the bars

Let the trees hold up the sky

With the snow in your face, your arm in a brace

Feeling your feet falling into place

Let the trees remember why

As they watch you rise

Rise

Rise

Rise
