we’re back
waking up
heading out to see
the light of a new sun

feels like
it’s been years
still the memories
of loss and pain
are ringing in my ears

we’re not normally
the ones whose names you see
but we’re here
we’re here

we’ll place our bets on you
we’re gonna help you see this through
and though we may be far away
you always know that come day
one or ninety nine
the finals or in party time
we’ll ride the vibes no matter what
and if tomorrow brings the
end of
all we’ve seen
raising hell
or tearing down peace
we’re gonna be there

things sure
look different now
new stadiums are going up
houses of cards built to fall down

time seems
to slow a bit
we’re getting breaks but they’re unpaid
just quick enough to grab a bag of chips

but even in the stress, my friends
if you need them, we’ve got helping hands
and we’re here
we’re here

we’ll place our bets on you
we’re gonna help you see this through
and though we may be far away
you always know that come day
one or ninety nine
the finals or in party time
we’ll ride the vibes no matter what
and if tomorrow brings the
end of
all we’ve seen
raising hell
or tearing down peace
we’re gonna be there

we know we’re not the ones who
have to fear the breaking dawn
our sky is slowly burning but the
tides are surely turning and we

promise you this much that we will
face down any god who still
wants to tear us down
we’ll be beside you rushing
up the mound

we’ll place our bets on you
we’re gonna help you see this through
and though we may be far away
you always know that come day

one or ninety nine
the finals or in party time
we’ll ride the vibes no matter what
and if tomorrow brings the
end of
all we’ve seen
raising hell
or tearing down peace
pockets full or
begging for seeds
you can know we’ll
always be
we’re gonna be there
