PATTI SMITH lyrics : "Upright Come"

(Smith/Ray)
Hail brother
The distant thunder

Is nothing but hearts
Beating as one
Dance of a million

On God's pavilion
Come come
Beat on your drum


Awake people arise
Awake upright come

Fortune is falling like
Tears from the skies
Open your eyes


Hail sister
Come on over

To shape reshape
Things to come
Bow your head

Raise your lantern
Come come
Beat on your drum


Awake people arise
Awake upright come

Fortune is falling like
Tears from the skies
Open your eyes


United action is what we need
Time to say that everything is going to

be
Wasted icons wasted lives
Like war obsolete


Awake people arise
Awake upright come

Fortune is falling like
Tears from the skies
Open your eyes


These are the times
The times of our own

These are the shapes
The world we formed
Swift is the arrow

Dark is the thorn
The slate is clean
The future awaits

Awake
