I'm sinking fast through the waters of time
I hold onto what's left inside


The faded verse, the words we left behind
The fractured hands that hold
The lives we live, the story still unfold

To rise above it all

[chorus]

Rise through the dust, through the lives we've lost
To find forever
Rise through the dust, awaken

To find forever gone

The faded verse, the poison in the vain

Will one day reach the heart
There's only time, there's nothing left but time
To rise above it all


[chorus]


No time to wait, the hands are reaching high
Bells will ring into the dead of night
Wake up from sleep, open your eyes

Rise from the dust in our lives

And i hold onto what's left inside


Rise up through the dust, awaken
To find forever gone
