Rise Above 2 Lyrics

[PETER]
When the ones who run the firehouse
Are the ones who start the fire
And the lawless make the laws
And every preacher is a liar
And the ones that damn the innocent
They own the nightly news
And front page

An old man said to me
"It's not who but what you know
And knowledge isn't wisdom without control
But still to be the changes that you want to see
They come slow
I know"

And you said, "Rise above
Open your eyes up"
And you said, "Rise above"
But I can't
I can't

[ARACHNE]
For every heart that bleeds
Will color your world red
And the sorrow in the night
Will be the blue you cannot shed
But your strength will be a vision
Beyond visibility
And the gift you have within
Will give you new eyes to see

And you can rise above
Swing through the skies above
And you shall rise above
Yourself

[MARY JANE]
Know that I'll be watching
Know that I'll be waiting

[PETER]
Standing on the precipice
I can't soar away from this
