Sitting in the corner is a small boy
Hugs himself so he won't feel alone
Hungry, tired, beaten, there is no joy,
Hearts of stone

Rise up
You can rise
Rise up
You can rise
Let your heart go free
Open your wings
You can fly
Let your heart go free
Let yourself fly

Lady crying waiting at the station
Hasn't got a friend now in the world
All that she's known is humiliation
Hearts of stone

Rise up
You can rise
Rise up
You can rise
Let your heart go free
Open your wings
You can fly
Let your heart go free
Let yourself fly

Rise up
We can rise
Rise up
We can rise

written as lyrics for a friend in 1997.
As a song, it was wonderful!
