Imagine Dragons

Rise up

I was hoping for an indication
I was seeking higher elevation
I've been shaken
Waking in the night-light
I've been breaking
Hiding from the spotlight

The more I stray, the less I fear
And the more I reach
The more I fade away
The darkness right in front of me
Oh, it's calling out and I won't walk away

I would always open up the door
Always looking up at higher floors
Want to see it all, give me more
-Rise, rise up-
I was always up for making changes
Walking down the streets, meeting strangers
Flipping through my life turning pages
-Rise, rise up-

Like a prayer that only needs a reason
Like a hunter waiting for the season
I was there but I was always leaving
I was living but I was never breathing

I would always open up the door
Always looking up at higher floors
Want to see it all, give me more
-Rise, rise up-
I was always up for making changes
Walking down the streets, meeting strangers
Flipping through my life turning pages
-Rise, rise up-

I'm bursting like the Fourth of July
So color me and blow me away
I'm broken in the prime of my life
So, embrace it and leave me to stray

I would always open up the door
Always looking up at higher floors
Want to see it all, give me more
-Rise, rise up-
I was always up for making changes
Walking down the streets, meeting strangers
Flipping through my life turning pages
-Rise, rise up-

Rise, rise up
Rise, rise up
