Rising, Rising

Lift up your eyes, child

Lift up your arms, you are home

I know you're hurt, child

But you can't do this on your own

And I can see your blood flow

And I can feel your hurt now

Did you think I'd let you be alone?

And I can hear your sorrow

Playing through the airways

I can tell your breath flows with my own

I will find you somehow

Let me be the salt in your wounds

Clean you from the inside

All your love is gone now

I've never been a coward, my dear

But I'm afraid of what you are

Lift up your eyes, child

Lift up your arms, you are home

I know you're hurt, child

But you can't do this on your own

...

I'll untie you

From the strings caught in your wings

And I'll try to

Fill in the gaps, all of the cracks they left behind

...
