Letra de ' Rise (Apollyon I) ' de Send The Advocate

I've been washed away
By the waves of destiny
Into an ocean of my own design

Searching and seeking, hoping and praying
Sewing and reaping, wandering, straying

Why have these hands sought to destroy everything
When they should bring prosperity to the weak?

My lungs are heavy with demise as I climb
From the ashes, as a phoenix. I will rise
I will climb
I will rise

The rhetoric's been planted, the smallest seed
In hopes that these words will bloom like leaves

As blind as we are to the wind, what else can we not see?
Will tainted honey ever taste as sweet?
The question I've had, but lacked the courage to speak
Is it wrong to, just this once, dip our feet?

Why have these hands sought to destroy everything
When they should bring prosperity to the weak?

Innovation is necessary, the outcome is revolutionary

With rhetoric that's planted, whose roots run deep
My words now resound without deniability

As blind as we are to the wind, what else can we not see?
Will tainted honey ever taste as sweet?
The question I've had, but lacked the courage to speak
Is it wrong to, just this once, dip our feet?
The faces reply with sheepish confirmation
Eye-to-eye, we'll never meet. I stand above

Lift up your chalice, and drink the honey
Consume until you hear the tide in the glass
And watch the dealings of a prophet unfold
Like petals of violet, drenched in royalty

Innovation is necessary, the outcome is revolutionary
