RISE AND FALL

WRITTEN BY: J.R HILTON

JULY 2016 

RISE AND FALL, YOU'LL NEVER SEE IT ALL

RISE AND FALL, JUST LIKE A RIVER OR A SEA

SOMETIMES I FEEL LIKE IT'S FALLING ON ME

SOMETIMES YOU CAN'T TOUCH ME, LOOK AT ME GO

REACHING OUT FOR THE PRIZE

YOU SEE THAT KIND OF RISE

BUT YOU DIDN'T SEE THE FALLS I SURVIVED

RISE AND FALL, LIKE THE HEARTBEAT IN YOUR CHEST

RISE AND FALL, LIKE THE RHYTHM OF THE RAIN  

I WANT TO KEEP ON RISING, I DON'T WANT TO FALL AGAIN

BUT LIKE A KING UPON A THRONE

YOU'RE SURROUNDED BUT YOU'RE ON YOUR OWN

RISE AND FALL, LIKE THE LIGHT OF THE DAY

THE SKIES GO FROM BLUE TO GREY

AND BACK TO BLUE AGAIN

THE TEMPERATURE BEGINS TO RISE

JUST LIKE WE DO ONE AND ALL

IT ALWAYS RISES, JUST BEFORE IT FALLS

THE FEELING, THE SMELL IN THE AIR

THAT CLINGS TO YOUR SKIN

JUST BEFORE THE RAINS BEGINS

  AND YOU KNOW YOU'RE THERE 

THE RISE AND FALL OF EMPIRES PAST

THAT DIDN'T KNOW THAT THEY WOULDN'T LAST

EVERYTHING THAT RISES MUST FALL

LAWS OF NATURE THAT APPLY TO ALL

WE NEVER THINK THAT WE COULD EVER FALL THAT FAR DOWN

UNTIL YOU HAVE TO PICK YOURSELF BACK UP FROM THE GROUND

SO RISE AND FALL AND RISE AGAIN

IF THAT'S HOW IT HAS TO BE

SOMETIMES I FEEL LIKE IT'S FALLING IN ON ME

RISE AND FALL, YOU'LL NEVER SEE IT ALL

SOMEDAY YOU WON'T RISE AND FALL

THEY'LL BE NO MORE YOU AT ALL
