Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
It's so fragile to hold your obsession
You're walking around like a victim
It's so easy to blame what isn't there
Why isn't there
Alone
One by one we march
I didn't come here to die
I came looking for a fight
The fearless
Alert and awake to the faceless
They can't risk you having the knowledge
It's easy to take what you're given
Don't give in
Alone
One by one we march
Into the sun
I didn't come here to die
I came looking for a fight
To the hearts of the children
And the madness that fills them
For all the fathers
The sons and daughters
All the bastards like me
And all the in between
Rise, rise
We'll start a revolution
Rise, rise
Write our own constitution
Rise
The lyrics to Dark Station's song "Ryse" seem to speak to those who feel like they are at a disadvantage, struggling to break free from the chains of oppression. The first verse speaks to the idea that obsession is fragile, and can easily take hold of someone's life. The singer sees someone walking around like a victim, blaming what isn't there. It's easy to get caught up in negative thoughts and emotions when things aren't going the way we want them to, but it's important to remember that blaming others won't solve anything.
The second verse speaks to the idea of being fearless, alert, and awake to the faceless. The faceless might represent those who seek to oppress and subjugate, taking away our freedom and knowledge. It's easy to take what we're given in life, but the singer is urging listeners to not give in to this mindset. Instead, they are calling for a revolution, writing their own constitution and fighting for what they believe in.
The final lines of the song speak to the hearts of the children and the madness that fills them. The singer is calling for action, for all the fathers, sons, and daughters to rise up and fight for what they believe in. The song seems to be a battle cry for those who want to take control of their lives and break free from the chains that hold them down.

Listen up
It's so fragile to hold your obsession
Your obsession is delicate and easily broken
You're walking around like a victim
You act like you're powerless
It's so easy to blame what isn't there
You're quick to blame things that aren't the real problem
Why isn't there
Why doesn't the real problem exist?
Alone
By myself
One by one we march
Each of us moves forward
Into the sun
Toward the light
I didn't come here to die
I'm not here to die
I came looking for a fight
I came prepared to confront my opponent
The fearless
Those without fear
Alert and awake to the faceless
Ready and aware of the unknown enemy
They can't risk you having the knowledge
They won't allow you to have the information
It's easy to take what you're given
It's simple to accept what you're handed
Don't give in
Resist the temptation to accept the status quo
To the hearts of the children
To the emotional core of the youth
And the madness that fills them
And the insanity that engulfs them
For all the fathers
To all the dads
The sons and daughters
The male and female children
All the bastards like me
All the outcasts like me
And all the in between
And everything in the middle
Rise, rise
Stand up, stand up
We'll start a revolution
We'll initiate radical change
Write our own constitution
Create our own laws and principles
Rise
Stand up

Such a massive variety in this band, it’s like Korn/Marilyn Manson in a 2000’s post hardcore shell. Love it 👌 Get your asses on a UK tour please! 😂
