Jenner Fox - One Man Up

Rise rise she's gone from your bed
There's a cold space where a body once slept
And she's out again and you're mad
But you can't seem to say it out loud
So you stew and you steam and you try to ignore her
Until she's singing, singing in the shower
And then you remember, remember power
And unplug the water heater
If nobody's running who's there to follow
Rise rise we're out chasing shadows
Rise rise the mountain is falling
A river of earth is coming it's coming
The birds have flown there's nothing to own anymore
Oh little Villa Santa Lucia
The mud and the rocks stopped in the middle of town
Oh the sound when it finally went silent
Sisters and neighbors under the ground
Rise rise look around
Wonder why you live on the living side of town
Singing one man up
And the other man down
One man up
And the other man down
Rise rise and breathe breathe
You're free to walk away
Free to be
Just another mother's son
Just another face
While the other man's lost in the name of keeping us safe
And every rule of every nation
Was born of the imagination
No fate no divine just you can have yours once I get mine
Rise rise there's light in the sky
And a big ol' day to figure out why
Singing one man up
And the other man down
One man up
And the other man down
One man up
And the other man down
One man up
And the other man down
Oh sisters and brothers and lovers and lovers
And deep in the mud and salvation above-ers
Blue and red and pale and brown
And forks and spoons all stuck in the ground
This side and that side we're all gonna die
Rise rise
Rise rise
Rise rise better you than I
Singing one man up
And the other man down
One man up
And the other man down
One man up
And the other man down
One man up
And the other man down
One man up
And the other man down
One man up
And the other man down
One man up
And the other man down
One man up
And the other man down
