DADADAH

RISE UP!

weight of your body
weight of your sin
cannot live without it
cannot weaken

pull me down beside you
body meet the ground
let me lie there quiet
cannot weaken now

cannot cannot cannot weaken rise up and be strong cannot cannot cannot weaken rise up now as one

touch the fire of lonely
burn the hand which knows
that giving is just taking
and taking is to lose

lose my life forever
take away my drug
leave me to recover
dying just to live

cannot cannot cannot weaken rise up and be strong cannot cannot cannot weaken rise up now as one

what if I should leave you?
suddenly I'm gone
weakness comes to tempt you
but you cannot be won

but I would never leave you
it's written on my soul
that I would always be here
having you to hold

cannot cannot cannot weaken rise up and be strong cannot cannot cannot weaken rise up now as one

there is a house in new orleans they call the rising sun an it's been the ruin of many a poor girl my god I know I'm one

go and tell my baby sister not to do what I have done
go through the night of darkness
and rise up rise up rise up
with the sun

cannot cannot cannot weaken rise up and be strong cannot cannot cannot weaken rise up now as one
