about

saying good-bye to loved ones

lyrics

Sitting here - suspension of disbelief - by your will
Sitting here - with a sense of relief - by your will

Nothing to say - Just want to get away
Am I the only one who disagrees?

And I rise and I rage
I rise and I raise

Cuz I rise and rage - rise and raise...

The Parting Glass

Standing here
A standstill - if you will - by your will
Standing here
Standing here with one last cup to fill

Nothing to fear anymore
No more late night knocks on my door
Nothing to feel anymore
No more blueprints on my floor

I rise and rage - rise and raise ...

The Parting Glass

Singing here
A singalong celebrating your departure
Singing here
Singing false praise to your past or heavenly future

But it serves no purpose
as you are not here anymore
Some of us will try to find a backdoor

Again I rise and rage - rise and raise ...
cry and raise - cry in rage...

I loved you - I hated you
I sing to you - I rise for you
I curse you - I pray for you
But I still raise...

The Parting Glass
