East of midnight, north of twilight Where the sign says welcome to the high life Celebration, illumination Shooting day for night against the street lights There's a moment when the fever breaks and time stands still Take a breath and let your soul surrender to the chill Rising up, into the great unknown Out from the battle zone The only direction home is rising up This is our great escape, ready to celebrate You just can't get enough There's only one way out, rising up Every weekend off the deep end Trying to hold back Monday with your best friends We are the faceless walking weightless As we blend into the mystic darkness One taste is not enough to whet your appetite If it scares you just a little, then you know it's right Rising up, into the great unknown Out from the battle zone The only direction home is rising up This is our great escape, ready to celebrate You just can't get enough There's only one way out, rising up Rising up, into the great unknown Out from the battle zone The only direction home is rising up This is our great escape, ready to celebrate You just can't get enough Rising up, into the great unknown Out from the battle zone The only direction home is rising up This is our great escape, ready to celebrate You just can't get enough There's only one way out, rising up
