The shimmering, hymn-like “Sing Loud” – created with songwriter/producer Jamie Kenney (“He’s cut from the same stone I am,” says McPherson) – confronts a failing relationship, “But with the belief that you’re going to experience freedom again,” McPherson explains.
Alpha Rev – Sing Loud Lyrics
Open wide I’m ready for the battle
Our fight, this burning bed
See the bones that bullets have shattered
And I feel every drop of blood you’ve bled
Lay down these promises broken
Take me into your hurricane
While violent clouds roll over
I’ll hold your hand till the colors fade
I’ll be here till your dying day
[Chorus:]
Sing loud from the roof tops
Come dance on the rivers edge
Carry me over mountains to the end of love
Close the gates to the city
Hear the drums on the hillside
Carry me over mountains to the end of love
Standing in a field of voices
Find shelter from the blame
Even if you think it’s all over
I’ll be here till the colors fade
I’ll be here till your dying day
[Chorus:]
Sing loud from the rooftops
Come dance on the rivers edge
Carry me over mountains to the end of love
Close the gate to the city
Hear the drums on the hillside
Carry me over mountains to the end of love
OOoooh OOoohh OOooohhh
OOoooh OOoohh OOooohhh
OOoooh OOoohh OOooohhh
OOoooh OOoohh OOooohhh
Put down the knife you’re weilding
Let high stone walls fall away
With gentle time will be an ending
And I’ll be here till the colors fade
And I’ll be here till your dying day
[Chorus:]
Sing loud from the rooftops
Come dance on the rivers edge
Carry me over mountains to the end of love
Close the gate to the city
Hear the drums on the hillside
Carry me over mountains to the end of love
Sing loud, burn it down, call the river as we fall apart
