Rise — Azure Ray

I'm really kind of winging it, but this seems to work,
so I'll put it up.  Capo on the fourth fret.

                         
today i'll crawl out of bed
       
i can't stand
                         
your shadow is too heavy to lift
                       
maybe we'll go for a ride
                        
you said you'd take me nowhere
                         
i said that suits me just fine 
                           
know you've always been near
                                         
whispering secrets i know i'm not supposed to hear
                            
hold your heart with two hands
                        
give it to me only to disappear

            
and look how low i've sunk
                
don't ask me to rise
                        
i'll lose you when i am high
            
hey look how low i've sunk
                
don't ask me to rise
                             
i'll only lose you when i'm high

                    
all alone in the dark
                           
love survives only when we are apart
                            
voice still sounds in my ears
                                            
soft explosions that blossom with the beat of my heart

(chorus)

            
hey look how low i've sunk
                
don't ask me to rise
                               end on 
i lost you when i was high.
