|
(J. Burns/B. Foxton) |
|
Arise! You've listened to too many liars too long |
|
And too many were your masters |
|
You've got the chance here to right all the wrong |
|
Don't squander it on disaster |
|
You're standing in a bright new dawn |
|
Got hope and belief enough for everyone |
|
Got the opportunity in your hand |
|
Now use it while you can |
|
Arise! People have written you off many times |
|
But you are a great survivor |
|
And though you have suffered some terrible crimes |
|
I know it's just made you stronger |
|
You're standing on your own two feet |
|
Got a morbid past but you've got it beat |
|
Got the key for living sitting in your hand |
|
Now use it while you can |
|
Chorus: You've got to hold on |
|
To how you feel today |
|
This is the last train from the wasteland |
|
Arise! And cynics will tell you there's problems ahead |
|
But you go ahead and solve them |
|
They'll fill you with doubt and suspicion and dread |
|
But your strength can overcome them |
|
You got to face the critics down |
|
Any fool can give in but you can't bow down |
|
You got too many lives and futures in your hand |
|
So save them while you can (Chorus) |
|
And every road that |
|
I've walked down |
|
I know your streets |
|
I know your towns |
|
I think I know the way you feel |
|
So stand up strong and proud |
|
Fear is not the answer |
|
Arise! And though this is only the start |
|
I know How long they have kept you waiting |
|
No matter how far down the road you go |
|
The first few steps, a new beginning |
|
So grab the future with both hands |
|
Nobody said it'd be the promised land |
|
But you can make it better than it's ever been |
|
So change it while you can (Chorus x2) |
|
Arise! Last train |
|
Last train |
|
Last train |
|
Last train |
|
Last train |
|
Arise! |
