Songtexte: Powerman 5000. Rise (Unmastered Version).

Desperate and empty and full of the low
High on the meaning of what
Style and song is killing for life
And nothing at all you can cut

A man made machine, now say what you mean
Sit down and build us a soul
The red is to black and the black is to red
And the world is an empty hole

You wanna get in my world, my world
You wanna get in my world (yeah)

Rise to the meaningless
Rise to the call
Rise until you take control
Rise to the obvious
Rise till you fall
Rise until you know what you know

The earth doesn't want me, the sky is too full
My fist is a hammer of air
Now I can destroy what you have got
And act like I really do care

Basic is simple, let's check out the end
Of sinners and stars and dust
The black is to red and the red is to black
The taste of control is just rust

You wanna get in my world, my world
You wanna get in my world (yeah)

Rise to the meaningless
Rise to the call
Rise until you take control
Rise to the obvious
Rise till you fall
Rise until you know what you know

Rise to the meaningless
Rise to the call
Rise until you take control
Rise to the obvious
Rise till you fall
Rise until you know what you know

You wanna get in my world
You wanna get in my world
You wanna get in my world
You wanna get in my world

[Yeah!]

Rise to the meaningless
Rise to the call
Rise until you take control
Rise to the obvious
Rise till you fall
Rise until you know what you know

Rise to the meaningless
Rise to the call
Rise until you take control
Rise to the obvious
Rise till you fall
Rise until you know what you know
