Emily Brown - But You Might Rise Lyrics




I'm not easy to live near
Not easy to live in
Hey baby, you're not going to lose next to me
But you're sure not gonna win

What do you call it? 7th inning? What number in the game?
You think I don't know you, do I know your name
I've got things to say, but I don't say em
I have words to tell but I keep em straight down in body
Here I go singing them again
Some people think I know what I'm doing, think again
I'm living in a dream, looking out my eyeballs at a screen
I touch you and make you want to scream

I do not dread the day in the morning
I wake up as naive as when I'm born
I do not dread the night in the evening
I dread the life I live when I'm alone
You think that you might be my weakness
Oh I can tell you you're not that, my weakness is me
I take you in to siphon out the silence
I feel free, I'm not free

I'm not saying that it's harder or it's easy
Only saying that from this side it gets sad
They tell me that no man can be an island
By that logic, do you think you are my man
By that logic, can you really be my man?

Thanks, come again when you think you'll hold me
Thanks, come again when your love is mine
It isn't hard, it isn't easy, it's being human
Part of being human's thinking that you're doing it the first time
You're not doing it the first time

Give a big sigh little girl, you don't want to be here anymore
Give a big cry little girl you don't have to if you don't want to

You've got teeth in your mouth
You've got blood in your eyes
You're not a bit of bread dough
But you might rise
You're not a little bird in the sky
But you might rise
You're not a bit of bread dough
But you might rise
You're not a baby bird
But you might rise
Nobody's planting you down in the ground
Big surprise
You're not a little seed, growing up, no
But you might rise
