The song of the arisin
A voice alone can draw a crowd
make it two to crank it loud
add one more to ramp the sound
put in four to shake the ground
let them sing to each a note
a different one by which they wrote
a melody of words collide
to take you on a journey wide
a song you hear that speaks true
a telling of all the things you do
from every tear that left your eyes
to the smile you wore as disguise
to feel the rhythm come from within
with every pulse you live again
each beat feels like new breath
a drum of the heart no longer in death
the mask you wore is cracking
it falls fast to the floor
please lift your sad eyes
and feel the pain no more
rise with the sun as it gives light
be proud of yourself again you can fight
the scars you had start to fade small
it's a new day to give it your all
