The streets of persuasion
Are plated with gold
Your heart's in the right place,
But you travelled down the wrong road
Like so many before you
The gates open wide

Here comes the rising tide

Let's go out, tonight
There's a mystery underneath them neon lights
Before the life and the dream collide
Cause the truth's gonna come and cut me open wide

And you can't escape the rising of the tide

Keep up your appearance, you join in the choir
With everybody singing out
Glory Hallelujah
The time came for your solo
But there was nowhere to hide

Here comes the rising tide

In the company you keep
Well they plan your crucifixion as we speak
So, baby til life and the dream collide
There's gonna be a mystery underneath those neon lights

If you can’t decide for just who’s on your side
You will not escape the rising of the tide

Can you tell me brother was I deceived, or in denial?
I was there, in the back of the room, when you testified

With your pitchfork tongue, you licked your lips and lied
We’re never going to know how hard you cried
When you petitioned and your access was denied

Till the venom in your veins is satisfied
Till you suffocate and swallow down the pride

Well you can escape
(you can escape)
Well you can escape
(you can escape)
Well you can escape the rising of the tide

信仰的镀金道路上 你带着确切的心 迷途
像过往的许多人 无阻 于是便迎来了潮涨 潮涨

让我们去玩吧今晚 霓虹灯下闪烁着神秘
在梦想与现实冲突以前
因为真理会来 将我剖开 而你无法逃脱涨高的潮汐

持续参与 你加入的唱诗班 与众人一同高歌 伟大的哈利路亚 哈利路亚
轮到你独曲 无处可逃 于是便迎来了潮涨 潮涨

你的伙伴 在我们闲谈时 设计着你受刑的十字架
所以 宝贝 直到梦想与现实冲突以前 霓虹灯下必闪烁着神秘

如果你无法抉择谁真正站在你这一边 你将无法逃脱涨高的潮汐

能否告诉我兄弟 是我被蒙蔽了呢 还是被否定了呢
我就在那里 在房间的后面 当你用你那三寸不烂之舌 舔着嘴唇 说出伪证
我们无从知晓你的痛彻心扉 当你的申诉被驳回

直到你静脉中的毒液安定 直到你窒息 吞咽尊严
然后 你可以逃脱 你可以逃脱
然后 你可以逃脱 你可以逃脱
然后 你可以从涨高的潮汐中逃脱
