How Much More

Push me farther, further my friend
The day’s last race made from my skin
Spirit above spirits below
Live life now
Angels won’t wait if you’re slow

A little less stardust, a lot more air
A bit more truth, a lot more care
So many years have come and gone
Seize the day
Time won’t wait to move on

How much faith can you have without knowing
How much love can you risk not showing
How much life can you dare not living
How much more

Bells are ringing it’s about to wake up
The clock is ticking what will it take
How much more how much more

Push me farther, further away
Ride the moment – ours is today
Spirits above spirits with there
It’s not too late to let your life begin

How much faith can you have without knowing
How much love can you risk not showing
How much life can you dare not living
How much more

Bells are ringing it’s about to wake up
The clock is ticking what will it take
How much more how much more

How much faith can you have without knowing
How much love can you risk not showing
How much life can you dare not living
How much more

How much faith can you have without knowing
How much love can you risk not showing
How much life can you dare not living
How much more

Rise

One day she dreamt that she could fly
Soar like a bird and touch the sky
Alas held back by gravity
So many laws to live by

It pulls her down below the cloud
Back down to earth amongst the crowd
So she threw caution to the wind
At the end of a fragile limb

She prayed God’s breath would catch her wings
Lift her up to higher things
An autumn leave clutched in her hand
Trusting Mother Nature’s plan

She left her name carved in the tree
And leapt towards her destiny
She took the chance to risk it all
It’s not just stars that dare to fall

Rise girl rise, standing tall
Sometimes if you want to fly
you’ve got to fall

But as she fell she closed her eyes
And thought of words from lullabies
Despite the fall she’s safe and sound
Finds herself back on the ground

Contemplating one more try
She casts her gaze to the darkened sky
Perhaps a tree is just too low
So to a cliff top she would go

Rise girl rise, standing tall
Sometimes if you want to fly you’ve got to fall

From on that cliff she saw that tree
It called her test of gravity
Upon the ragged rocks she stood
In looking down she understood

Lyings not all that it seems
Somethings are better left in dreams
She learned her lesson from the skies
It’s best to live with open eyes

Rise girl rise, standing tall
Sometimes if you want to fly you’ve got to fall
Rise girl rise, standing tall
Sometimes if you want to fly you’ve got to fall
