The things you love dont give us too much hope
When youve lost your appetite and youre sick and tired
Maybe what you need is some food for your eyes
To make them rise
Dont tell me how to tell the truth
Youre like a store that only sells guns and knives
Tell me how to make something beautiful
Flash before your eyes
Let them make you rise
It only costs a buck for three tries
Though money never buys enough of anything
And Im a moving target trying to shake some lead
From your eyes
Let them make you rise
