Rising Lyrics

I left your sight

With a grin on my face

and a tear down my cheek

But it felt like weight

had come right off my shoulders

though it still kind of hurt

I knew I would heal from feeling weak

You know that you're not my best friend

We thought we'd stay together 'til the very end

But you've been putting weight on me every day

And I can't put up with this

No, you can't stay

Now you're gone

And I'm left weightless

I'm as light as a feather

Wish I knew this feeling better

Now I'm rising

I can soar the skies

Now I realize

That goodbye allowed me to fly

Now I'm rising

I can fly real high

Now I'm rising

And I can't believe I let you treat me like this

For all of these months

But I never thought you would turn into this

Used to think you were sweet

Back when we truly had some fun

You know that you're not my best friend

We thought we'd stay together 'til the very end

But you've been putting weight on me every day

And I can't put up with this

No, you can't stay

Now you're gone

And I'm left weightless

I'm as light as a feather

Wish I knew this feeling better

Now I'm rising

I can soar the skies

Now I realize

That goodbye allowed me to fly

Now I'm rising

I can fly real high

Now I'm rising

Now I'm rising
