Can someone turn out the lights
I'm not so sure everybody's seeing right
Can someone turn out the lights
I'm not so sure everybody's seeing right
Even in the way you try
We can see that your make up was running late last night
Has it been a while
Since you laid beside each other and watched the walls fall down
It's just a smiling crime
Everybody's got a little ugly hanging around
So why don't you come down
Sometimes you need a friend so you can see it right
In the best of times
In the best of times
In the best of times
Doesn't mean that you can't change your mind
Meant the world to me that you took the time
So we rise
So we rise
Into the arms of a gentle breeze
So we rise
And carry each other with some love sometimes
So we rise
Don't you know we were born a little blind
So we rise
Sometimes you need a friend so you can see it right
So we rise
It's just the skin we were born in
