vs1
she just wanted someone to fight
it helped to make her feel alive
someone to hit, someone to love
who couldn't exist so high above
ch
she is waiting for the day
when he comes to her to say
that he is not a voice in her head
he's raising up the dead
vs2
she'll drive her car into the lake
hoping she might see his face
if he's everywhere, then why not here
why navigate, why even steer
ch
bridge
alone under the stars
she's walking off the night
when you don't know where you are
following the light is not a choice
ch
she is waiting for the day
when he comes to her to say
that he is not a voice in her head
he's not the father who fled
he's not the things that they said
he's raising up the dead
