When I Look Back - In the City

When it rains it pours and opens doors That flood the floors we thought would always Keep us safe and dry And in the midst of sailing ships We sink our lips into the ones we love That have to say goodbye And as I float along this ocean I can feel you like a notion That won't seem to let me go And when I look to the sky Something tells me you're here with me And you make everything alright And when I feel like I'm lost Something tells me you're here with me And I can always find my way when you are here And every word I didn't say That caught up in some busy day And every dance on the kitchen floor We didn't have before And every sunset that we'll miss I'll wrap them all up in a kiss And pick you up in all of this when I sail away While I float upon this ocean I can feel you like a notion That I hope will never leave 'Cause when I look to the sky Something tells me you're here with me And you make everything alright And when I feel like I'm lost Something tells me you're here with me And I can always find my way Whether I am up or down or in or out Or just plain overhead Instead it feels like it's impossible to fly But with you I can spread my wings To see me over everything that life may send me When I am hoping it won't pass me by And when I feel like there's no one That will ever know me There you are to show me When I look to the sky Something tells me you're here with me And you make everything alright when you are here And when I feel like I'm lost Something tells me that you're right here next to me And I can always find my way when you are here And I can always find my way

This is only the start You're only opening the book You're only on the first line of what's going to take a little while I hope you don't hold your breath because they revolt like a choir They say the language is dead, well, then why do we speak I hope you understand that my brain is fixed Into the next town This is only a revolt Enough is enough because we cannot be late Basically, you've been defined as "unworthy of love" And I confess, I had placed in my heart the same address but I paint with my words "You're free, don't fear, this is just a revolt" Into the next town This is only a revolt Calm rose: violent wind The only "surrender" tonight, shall not be our own They cannot escape, one if by land, two if by sea I saved my money, but it can't save me And maybe there is blood from the past, but that is not from me They can take away one man, and they can take away his mic But they cannot take us all No, they can't dig a hole the right size to fit all of our dreams They can't bury me, they can't bury me We can't hope that somebody else take our place No, we can't hope that somebody else take our place May the history book read of all of our names Be it blood, be it ink, but at least we were free This is only but a fraction of what I've got to say It must be said, it must be said If I leave this earth tonight may it be said that I spoke my peace I spoke with the wrath of his grace Calm rose: come violent wind Oh we stand hand in hand and we walk without fear This is a revolution!
