Jon Treloar - Rise

Looking for reason in these troubled times
Overwhelmed and beaten down with lies
No matter where you turn, you can never quite see
The truth anymore, just uncertainty

We're dust in the wind
Bourne along on the tide
Ebbing and flowing
Just along for the ride

Your future can seem
Out of your hands
you go with the flow
Bury your head in the sand

Couched in comfort
Till you no longer see
What difference you make
The way you should be

Overwhelmed with Graphic
On your TV
It's easy to become
numb to morality

But it's time to rise
It's time to stand up
To know when to say
enough is enough
