What's this song about?
Generate meaning
1
The streets of persuasion
2
Are plated with gold
3
Your heart's in the right place,
4
But you travel down the wrong road
5
Like so many before you
6
The gates open wide
7
Here come the rising tide (rising tide)
8
Let's go out tonight
9
There's a mystery underneath the neon light
10
Before life and dreams collide
11
'Cause the truth's gonna come and cut me open wide
12
And you can't escape the rising of the tide
13
Keep up your appearance; you're joining the choir
14
With everybody singing out "Glory, Hallelujah" (Hallelujah)
15
The time came for your solo
16
But there was nowhere to hide
17
Here come the rising tide (rising tide)
18
And the company you keep,
19
Well they plan your crucifixion as we speak
20
So, baby 'til life and the dream collide
21
There's gonna be a mystery underneath those neon lights
22
If you can't decipher just who's on your side
23
You will not escape the rising of the tide
24
Can you tell me brother? Was I deceived, or in denial?
25
I was there, in the back of the room, when you testified
26
With your pitchfork tongue, you licked your lips and lied
27
We're never gonna know how hard you cried
28
When you petitioned and your access was denied
29
'Til the venom in your veins is satisfied
30
'Til you suffocate and swallow down the pride
31
Well you can't escape
32
(You can't escape)
33
Yeah, you can't escape
34
(You can't escape)
35
No, you can't escape the rising of the tide
