Rise Written along with "The Dead Part Of You" in late 1990 as last minute additions to Everclear and with the aim of providing a big anthemic single, it was only played a few times through 1991 and then never again. Along with appearing on Everclear in Sept 1991, it was also released as a single that autumn. |
The things you love don’t give us too much hope
When you’ve lost your appetite and you’re sick and tired Maybe what you need is some food for your eyes To make them rise Don’t tell me how to tell the truth You’re 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 I’m a moving target trying to shake some lead From your eyes Let them make you rise |
