The Rising Tide lyrics

The streets of persuasion
Are plated with gold
Your heart's in the right place,
But you travelled down the wrong road
Like so many before you
The gates open wide

Here comes the rising tide

Let's go out, tonight
There's a mystery underneath them neon lights
Before the life and the dream collide
Cause the truth's gonna come and cut me open wide

And you can't escape the rising of the tide

Keep up your appearance, you join in the choir
With everybody singing out
Glory Hallelujah
The time came for your solo
But there was nowhere to hide

Here comes the rising tide

In the company you keep
Well they plan your crucifixion as we speak
So, baby til life and the dream collide
There's gonna be a mystery underneath those neon lights

If you can’t decide for just who’s on your side
You will not escape the rising of the tide

Can you tell me brother was I deceived, or in denial?
I was there, in the back of the room, when you testified

With your pitchfork tongue, you licked your lips and lied
We’re never going to know how hard you cried
When you petitioned and your access was denied

Till the venom in your veins is satisfied
Till you suffocate and swallow down the pride

Well you can escape
(you can escape)
Well you can escape
(you can escape)
Well you can escape the rising of the tide
