I rise alone

Rise alone
In lieu of

In lieu of love

Its all fine
Its alright
Undefined
I step outside

I'm alive

Alive

In lieu
Of love

I live
In lieu of

Everything's great
Its just fine

In lieu of
Nothing
Nothing

I still rise
In lieu of
Something
Somewhere
Sometimes

I still rise
in closed eyes

I still speak
in closed minds

I still think
in stillness

I still rise
In lieu of
Life
It is meant to be about a ghost but didnt come off too well.
