Stay On Your Feet

Walking on a slanted plane
As the lamp sways in the wind
Maybe in the fading light
A heron is still in flight

Sodom all around us
We hear the children cry
Uneasy shadows rise
As the horizon sinks low

Stay on your feet
Leave the crowd, walk like a fallen king
Raise your head
Hold your head, walk through the storm

Stay on the road
Carry your soul, like a silent hero
Stay on your feet
And when you fall, rise and walk again

Beauty slowly fades away
Demons swarm wild in the sky
No daisies on the roadside
No glory at the end of the way

A lone heron against the wind
Dissolving like a dream
Into the folds of fading light
While the horizon sinks low

Stay on your feet
Leave the crowd, walk like a fallen king
Raise your head
Hold your head, walk through the storm

Stay on the road
Carry your soul, like a silent hero
Stay on your feet
And when you fall, rise and walk again

Stay on your feet
Walk like a fallen king
Stay on your feet
Walk through the storm

Stay on your feet
Leave the crowd, walk like a fallen king
Raise your head
Hold your head, walk through the storm

Stay on the road
Carry your soul, like a silent hero
Stay on your feet
And when you fall, rise and walk again
