Rise by Azure Ray

Rise
by Azure Ray

Today I'll crawl out of bed
I can't stand your shadow
Is too heavy to lift
Maybe we'll go for a ride

You said you'd take me nowhere
I said that suits me just fine
I know you've always been near
Whispering secrets I know

I'm not supposed to hear
Hold your heart with two hands
Give it to me only to disappear
Look how low I've sunk

Don't ask me to rise
I'll only lose you when I'm high
All alone in the dark
Love survives only when we are apart

Your voice still sounds in my ears
Soft explosions that blossom

With the beat of my heart

Azure Ray is an American indie duo, consisting of musicians Maria Taylor and Orenda Fink. Azure Ray started in Athens, Georgia, in 2001 and later relocated to Omaha, Nebraska, and joined the music scene there, leading to collaborations with Bright Eyes and Now It's Overhead, among others. Their sound is sparse and understated, with intimate lyrics, elements of alt-country and folk Americana, and occasional forays into minimalist electronica.
