Amy MacDonald – The Rise & Fall lyrics
[Verse 1]
Everything must come to an end
Don't rely on the trust of men
Remember how it used to be?
People helping those in need
And good guys always finish last
Power corrupts and good turns bad
Remember how I used to be?
Always helping those in need
[Chorus]
The rise and fall
I never thought it through at all
Held onto the power too long
Forsaking all the friends I know
[Verse 2]
All of this is just a game
I don't give a damn for change
Deep, deep down, we're all the same
Power, glory, money, fame
And reaching out to hear the truth
No matter what it does to you
Secrets hidden in every drawer
But no one knows what we're hiding for
[Chorus]
The rise and fall
I never thought it through at all
Held onto the power too long
Forsaking all the friends I know
[Bridge]
Together we rise and united we fall
Together we rise and united we fall
Together we rise and united we fall
Together we rise and united we fall
And together we rise and united we fall
Together we rise and united we fall
Together we rise and united we fall
Together we rise and united we fall
[Chorus]
The rise and fall
I never thought it through at all
Held onto the power too long
Forsaking all the friends I know
[Outro]
Together we rise and united we fall
Together we rise and united we fall
Together we rise and united we fall
Together we rise and united we fall
And together we rise and united we fall
Together we rise and united we fall
Together we rise and united we fall
Together we rise and united we fall
Everything must come to an end
Don't rely on the trust of men
Remember how it used to be?
People helping those in need
And good guys always finish last
Power corrupts and good turns bad
Remember how I used to be?
Always helping those in need
[Chorus]
The rise and fall
I never thought it through at all
Held onto the power too long
Forsaking all the friends I know
[Verse 2]
All of this is just a game
I don't give a damn for change
Deep, deep down, we're all the same
Power, glory, money, fame
And reaching out to hear the truth
No matter what it does to you
Secrets hidden in every drawer
But no one knows what we're hiding for
[Chorus]
The rise and fall
I never thought it through at all
Held onto the power too long
Forsaking all the friends I know
[Bridge]
Together we rise and united we fall
Together we rise and united we fall
Together we rise and united we fall
Together we rise and united we fall
And together we rise and united we fall
Together we rise and united we fall
Together we rise and united we fall
Together we rise and united we fall
[Chorus]
The rise and fall
I never thought it through at all
Held onto the power too long
Forsaking all the friends I know
[Outro]
Together we rise and united we fall
Together we rise and united we fall
Together we rise and united we fall
Together we rise and united we fall
And together we rise and united we fall
Together we rise and united we fall
Together we rise and united we fall
Together we rise and united we fall
