The streets of persuasion
Are plated with gold

Your heart’s in the right place,
But you travel down the wrong road

Like so many before you
The gates open wide
You’re on the rising tide

Let’s go out tonight
There’s a mystery underneath those neon lights

Before life and dream collide
‘Cuz the truth’s still gonna come and cut you open wide
And you can’t escape the rising of the tide

Keep up your appearance, you join the choir
With everybody singing out Glory Hallejuah

The song gets you nowhere
There’s nowhere to hide
Here come the rising tide

And the company you keep,
Well they plan your crucifiction as we speak
So, baby til life and dream collide
There’s gonna be a mystery of the people neon lights
You’ll petition, but your actions were denied
And you can’t escape the rising of the tide

Keep tell me how was I deceived, or in denial?
I was there, in the back of the room, where you testified

You took the stand, you licked your lips, and you lied
Until the life and the dream collide

Well I gotta believe that something’s on my side.
When a better man, your claims are satisfied
You’ll be rolling, but there ain’t no where to hide

You can’t escape (you can’t escape)
You can’t escape (you can’t escape)
You can’t escape the rising of the tide
