lyrics

Fragile and mistaken, every step I've taken is vital to the way things have to be
Search for symbols everywhere, set the day and meet me there - significance is steeping in the air

Elusive and abrasive, of course the wind will change but a steady course will always pull you through
Your face will be remembered, your name forever honoured, when angels sing, they'll always sing of you

So rise up above it all, take a breath then take the fall, no sense left in looking down, it's the farthest drop to the ground
Rise up from the ashes, your smile spreads, yeah it catches
But don't lose that fire in your eyes - you got it from the rise

The battle that you're raging, you'll try communicating, a glowing shape that wanders in the night
The energy you're holding, the secrets you're withholding, just throw it out, they're crowning the new knight
Risen from the ash and flame, the question stands, what is your name? I'll open eyes as the Templar of the sky

So rise up above it all, take a breath then take the fall, no sense left in looking down, it's the farthest drop to the ground
Rise up from the ashes, your smile spreads, yeah it catches
But don't lose that fire in your eyes - you got it from the rise
