[Verse 1]
Why are we worried? Tell me
Why are we crying? Tell me
Can we live together without pain?
Burdens at our doorstep, burdens in our heart
It's time to let them travel, lay them down
From the tallest mountain down in the lowest valley
We're all asking and we want to know
Why we're climbing, tell me
Why we're falling, tell me
Where we're going, yeah, we want to know

[Chorus]
Rise, sun, rise
Rise, sun, rise
Sun, rise

[Verse 2]
We've been hoping there's a new day coming
And it is not promised, but it's all we know
Can we quantify it? Can we try and maybe
Try and fight it but we hold it close

[Chorus]
Rise, sun, rise
Rise, sun, rise
Sun, rise
[Chorus]
Rise, sun, rise
Rise, sun, rise
Sun, rise
Sun, rise

[Outro]
Why are we worried? Tell me
Why are we crying? Tell me
Can we live together without pain?
Burdens at our doorstep, burdens in our heart
It's time to let them travel, lay them down
Why are we worried? Tell me
Why are we crying? Tell me
Can we live together without pain?
Burdens at our doorstep, burdens in our heart
It's time to let them travel, lay them down
