Rise Above it All

 For every time I've fallen down
 For every wall that keeps us bound
 For everyone we've beaten to the ground, and watched them fade away
 For every wrong I couldn't right
 For every sleepless night I hoped and dreamed
 For every one, everywhere , every cross I couldn't bear to watch you leave..

 But I will not break when all hope is lost
 I will be brave and rise above it all
 All the mistakes, the pain, the rise and fall
 But I will not break and rise above it all

 For all the blood we've yet to bleed
 For every beauty fading endlessly
 In the city washed in lights, we come alive, the night is young and so are we
 Still I believe.
 Here's where we start, here's where we begin
 A million hearts with the same fiction..
 The voices change, but we're the same
 And the reward was more than I could take

 But I will not break when all hope is lost
 I will be brave and rise above it all
 All the mistakes, we made, the rise and fall
 But I will not break and rise above it all

 When all is lost 
 And the end is near
 And the childish things you've carried
 Are put away my dear
 We still lose hope
 We still feel pain
 And all the things we can't reach
 Cause we're all the same 
 We're all the same to me

 But I will not break when all hope is lost
 I will be brave and rise above it all
 All the mistakes, the pain, the rise and fall
 But I will not break and rise above it all

 But I will not break when all hope is lost
 I will be brave and rise above it all
 All the mistakes, we made, the rise and fall
 But I will not break and rise above it all
