Rise Up in the Dirt Songtext

Rise Up in the Dirt Songtext

Too many times you′re gonna go out river walking
Too many times you come home late
Too many times you suck yourself out of the scenery
Makes you wanna go straight
It makes you wanna go straight

Too many times you trade the bottle for the body
One drop for breath and one for skin
You say nobody knows the truth about your body
You look tired and thin
Oh you tired and thin

But if I were a good man
Would it really happen
Would you walk me home then, everyday from work?
But maybe I'm a good man, wait and let it happen
I believe in love, I′m married to my work


'Cause I could be your father, I could be your brother
I could be your flower, rise up in the dirt
We were born to live here, we were born to die here
And you know this when you work
Yeah, you watch me when you work

When you are free from the work of this house
Will you know what to do with your hands
Listen, I'm sure you′ve got a few ideas
And when you wake from the shell of this body
Oh will you sink your ghost in a man?
Listen I hope you′ve got something better up your sleeve

Too many times you bleed your love dry for your family
And mull it over in your sleep
Roll over twice and hold the burden like a man
Something you can keep, something you can keep
You smell the scent of something burning in the kitchen
He smells the future on the lawn
These are the things we come to recognize as truth
We cut the right into wrong, we cut the right into wrong

But if I were a good man
Would it really happen
Would you walk me home then everyday from work?
But maybe I'm a good man, wait and let it happen
I believe in love, I′m married to my work


'Cause I could be your father, I could be your brother
I could be your flower, rise up in the dirt
We were born to live here, we were born to die here
And you know this when you work
Yeah, you watch me when you work

It seems that we used to live like rebels
But now we get scared like our parents
Our struggle and fade
It′s just a waste of money

And when you wake up tomorrow my son
Oh you will be the father of something terrible
It will shine throughout your life
Oh, it will shine throughout your life
Oh, it will shine throughout your life
But it won't bury you
′Cause we know

Somewhere in the darkness
You will find love, baby you will find love
Somewhere in the darkness
You will find love, baby you will find love

You will feel young again
Oh, you will feel young again
Oh, you will feel young again
And you will feel young
