Sweet sublime sound of the open frontier..love it !

STAND UP
@ Nitanee Paris & Jenna Laurise

Her face came to me 
In a dream that took me deep 
She may have been an angel
Or an echo
Calling me from sleep

She said, you never think about the sacrifice 
Said, you don’t remember the unholy price
And you can hide behind your sanctity 
But sometimes silence is complicity

Hold on she said don't let go of me 
I’m your present and I’m your history
All that you enjoy every setting sun
Came on the back of some unknown someone

Stand up together we are never gonna fall
Stand up for those of us who cannot stand at all
Stand up for all the ones who stood for us before
Stand up ‘cause now 
We need to stand up even more 

She said, we’ll be watching from the satellites
A sea of lights will get us through the night
‘Cause nothing’s given nothing’s guaranteed
The best things in life aren’t always free

Hold on she said don't let go of me 
I’m your present and I’m your history
All that you enjoy every setting sun
Came on the back of some unknown someone

Stand up together we are never gonna fall
Stand up for those of us who cannot stand at all
Stand up for all the ones who stood for us before
Stand up ‘cause now 
We need to stand up even more

I will be strong won’t be defined by fear
I promise I will carry on from here

Stand up together we are never gonna fall
Stand up for those of us who cannot stand at all
Stand up for all the ones who stood for us before
Stand up ‘cause now 
We need to stand up even more

Stand up together we are never gonna fall
Stand up for those of us who cannot stand at all
Stand up for all the ones who stood for us before
Stand up ‘cause now 
We need to stand up even more

Final break-up, ain’t no make-up,
This time she won’t be comin’ back
Yeah, she walked out, said we’re done now,
I told her I was fine with that

She said I’ll regret those words

     She’s probably thinkin’ I’m drinkin’
     Five shots down on a Thursday night
     Couldn’t wait for the weekend
     Half-way to the deep end
     tryin’ to drown her memory in tequila and lime
     If she’s thinkin’ I’m drinkin’ tonight
     well, she be right

Time has shown me that she knows me
better than I know myself sometimes
Yeah, she gets it, I can’t live with
without that girl in my life

     Chorus

She said I’ll regret those words
guess I’m showin’ her

     Chorus

END

She's Thinkin' I'm Drinkin'   (C. Mills, R. Morrison, A. Topel)

An eerie story of a sacred place and the spirit of the land.
