Come On

Light tends to flicker in moments
When wind tries to show that it's strong
I don't claim true clarivoyance
But your eyes tell me what's wrong

People taking shots at you to
Pull you into their pain
Generations try their damndest
But we all end up the same

So come on, come on
Try to set your feet on the stone
Come on, come on
You ain't in this alone
Come on, come on

I watched you crawl to the sofa
And learn how to open the doors
Taught you to clap to the rhythm
And dance your feet all over the floor

But any sign of life has
Left your body here to decay
More than your sisters you need this mister
To help you sing another way

So come on, come on
Try to set your feet on the stone
Come on, come on
You ain't in this alone

Don't let, don't let 'em get to ya
Don't let 'em knock you down
Don't let, don't let 'em get to ya
Rise up and make a sound

Don't let, don't let 'em get to ya
Call me on the phone
Don't let, don't let 'em get to ya
The more the push, the more you come on

So come on, come on
Try to set your feet on the stone
Come on, come on
You ain't in this alone
