1.) German Watch Me R… Read Full Bio ↴There are at least two bands called Watch Me Rise:
1.) German Watch Me Rise (post-hardcore/emo/punk)
Josh - Vocals
Florian - Guitar
Shmagi - Guitar
Chris - Bass
Sven - Drums & Vocals
From their FB:
"Watch me Rise are 5 guys from Frankfurt am Main.
After a quiet few months in the Watch me Rise camp for some time, they could take the time to make a big step forward with their debut EP "Of Anxious Minds and Sleepless Nights" towards the end of 2018.
The following headline tour across Germany together with "RCKLSS" from England was a great success. It also was received really well outside of their state and had a great deal of attention.
New material is already on its way, an own mixture of emotional post punk and post hardcore. Not only the emotional lyrics show how much blood, sweat and tears the guys put into their songs, especially live they radiate a lot of energy and emotion.
They could already show this as support at shows for bands like "Napoleon", "Annisokay", "Immerse", "8 Kids", "Unleash The Sky", "Why Everyone Left(IT)", "Noija (SWE)", "Halflives (FR)", "Elm Tree Circle" and many more.
Looking forward to 2019, listeners can be curious about a band that has recently become a real insider tip on the (alternative) Frankfurt music scene and beyond. New songs, a lot of shows and the odd festival appearance promise an exciting new year and a hot summer."

Watch Me Rise Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Its the same with leaving your side
Cause I know everything's gonna be alright
Alright one day again
But on the other side This little cosmos we created
Feels save and like home
When Im on my own
Lie awake every night
I cant pretend that I'd rather be away from here
Away from truth and all those years
Away from truth and all those years with you
Im running away cause the same old shit is happening once again
If I am sorry?
Well I dont know
Needless to say I spent some days on my own?
Running away is the only thing I know
Beside my dog I got not much to show
Im running away cause everything is falling down in pieces my friend
I cant pretend that I'd rather be away from here
Away from truth and all those years
Away from truth and all those years with you
Im running away cause the same old shit is happening once again
Suddenly I hate
The look upon your face
Promises you've made
When we were hiding in the shades
Drugs that made me stay
For just one more day
The good times we've had
I won't forget
I won't forget

It is evident that the singer is struggling with the decision to leave and the memories of the past.
The first verse of the song sets the tone for the rest of the lyrics. It is clear that the singer is coming to terms with the idea that they enjoyed being in the dark, and leaving the person they were with was not easy. They find comfort in the thought that everything will be alright eventually. However, when they are alone, there is a sense of safety and home in the darkness. The singer cannot sleep at night because they are running away from the truth and the years spent with their partner. As the song progresses, the singer admits that they don't know if they are sorry for leaving or not, but they needed the space to think. In the chorus, they describe how they are running away because everything is falling apart, and they can't pretend that they want to be there anymore.

I always kind of enjoyed darkness
I have always found comfort in the dark and being alone
Its the same with leaving your side
Leaving you behind feels the same as being alone in the dark
Cause I know everything's gonna be alright
I believe that in time, things will work themselves out
Alright one day again
Eventually, everything will be okay again
But on the other side This little cosmos we created
On the other side of leaving you, we will leave behind the world we built together
Feels save and like home
Our world felt safe and familiar
When Im on my own
When I am alone, I think about our world together
Lie awake every night
I cannot sleep and lay awake at night
Im running away cause everything is falling down in pieces my friend
I am leaving because everything in my life is crumbling apart
I cant pretend that I'd rather be away from here
I cannot deny the fact that I need to escape from my current situation
Away from truth and all those years
I need to leave the truth and the past behind
Away from truth and all those years with you
I need to leave behind the truth and the past we shared together
Im running away cause the same old shit is happening once again
I need to escape because the same negative patterns in my life are happening again
If I am sorry?
I do not know if I am sorry for leaving
Well I don't know
I have no answer for my own question
Needless to say I spent some days on my own?
I do not need to explain why I needed time alone
Running away is the only thing I know
Escaping is the only way I know how to deal with my problems
Beside my dog I got not much to show
Other than my dog, I do not have much else in my life
Suddenly I hate
I feel a sudden hatred
The look upon your face
I hate the way you look at me
Promises you've made
I hate the promises you made to me
When we were hiding in the shades
I hate remembering the times we were once happy and hiding from the world
Drugs that made me stay
I hate the drugs that kept me in this situation
For just one more day
I only stayed for a short period of time more
The good times we've had
I will not forget the happy memories we shared
I won't forget
Those happy memories will always stay with me
