Rise by Thea Gilmore Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Are you lost? Are you tired?
Is the road ahead unmade?
Are you worn?
Did the storm tear up every stone you laid?

Are you alone?
Is your home past the point of no return?
Did those days just erase
Everything you thought you'd learned?

[Chorus]
Come on reach, you'll see
For the river's not that wide
Now reach for me
And bridge that dark divide
Come on and rise
Come on and rise

[Verse 2]
Is there a voice in the air
Just screaming that you're wrong?
Is that noise too much to bear
Drowning out your cradle song?
And are you scared you'll be
Just one drop in the wave?
Has your heart twisted apart
From too long being brave?

[Chorus]
Come on reach, you'll see
For the river's not that wide
Now reach for me
And bridge that dark divide
Come on and rise
Come on and rise
Come on and rise
Come on and rise

[Bridge]
And I know you're lonely
I know you're aching
But that next step's the one worth taking
There's a hand, darling
There's a shoulder
And there are arms
That just want to hold you

[Chorus]
Come on reach, you'll see
We can sail out come high tide
Now reach for me
Don't let them say you never tried
Now reach, you'll see
For the river's not that wide
Now reach for me
And bridge that dark divide
Come on and rise
Come on and rise
Come on and rise
Come on and rise
[Outro]
(Rise) And I know you're lonel, I know you're aching
(Come on and rise) But that next step's the one worth taking
