| [00:15.700] |
. |
| [00:43.700] |
The streets of persuasion |
| [00:46.570] |
Are plated with gold |
| [00:50.100] |
Your heart's in the right place, |
| [00:52.440] |
But you travel down the wrong road |
| [00:56.690] |
Like so many before you |
| [00:59.949] |
The gates open wide |
| [01:02.699] |
Here come the rising tide |
| [01:06.130] |
. |
| [01:09.760] |
Let's go out tonight |
| [01:16.510] |
There's a mystery underneath the neon light |
| [01:23.570] |
Before life and dreams collide |
| [01:30.450] |
Cause the truth's gonna come and cut me open wide |
| [01:37.509] |
And you can't escape the rising of the tide |
| [01:42.100] |
. |
| [01:45.690] |
Keep up your appearance; you're joining the choir |
| [01:52.589] |
With everybody singing out "Glory, Hallelujah" |
| [01:59.690] |
The time came for your solo |
| [02:02.590] |
But there was nowhere to hide |
| [02:05.280] |
Here come the rising tide |
| [02:09.219] |
. |
| [02:12.400] |
And the company you keep, |
| [02:19.900] |
Well they plan your crucifixion as we speak |
| [02:25.530] |
So, baby 'til life and the dream collide |
| [02:32.650] |
There's gonna be a mystery underneath those neon lights |
| [02:40.300] |
If you can't decipher just who's on your side |
| [02:46.970] |
You will not escape the rising of the tide |
| [02:51.400] |
. |
| [03:04.580] |
Can you tell me brother? Was I deceived, or in denial? |
| [03:11.400] |
I was there, in the back of the room, when you testified |
| [03:15.280] |
. |
| [03:21.840] |
With your pitchfork tongue, you licked your lips and lied |
| [03:28.150] |
We're never gonna know how hard you cried |
| [03:35.650] |
When you petitioned and your access was denied |
| [03:42.590] |
'Til the venom in your veins is satisfied |
| [03:49.550] |
'Til you suffocate and swallow down the pride |
| [03:54.790] |
. |
| [03:56.610] |
Well you can't escape |
| [03:58.670] |
You can't escape |
| [04:00.500] |
Yeah, you can't escape |
| [04:01.610] |
You can't escape |
| [04:03.480] |
No, you can't escape the rising of the tide |
| [04:07.920] |
