Hey!

I was lost staring up into the blinding sun

As my eyes were burning in the light, I thought I could never reach those heights

Placing all of my faith in tomorrow’s embrace

In a dawn that never came to be

but I’d plea, just waiting for the world to change me

What’s that?

Yeah we all know that the world is unfair

Wake up!

Cause nobody’s gonna hear your prayer

I’m done livin’ in a haze

‘Cause I’m countin’ down on the days

’till I let the spark inside burst into flames, hey (hey!) hey

I’m refusing to light a match and watch the embers die

Seems so cruel how the world will just forget a lonely life

I could wait for a sign and rot here

give up on all the hope I brought here

But instead I’ll embrace my fear and shout into the night

Everything that brought me here to today, I won’t let it go to waste

Breaking through the shadows plaguing my mind, I’ll finish what I started this time

Though the moments slip on by oh so fast, my resolve will always last

Rising through the dawn to light my own way

I’ll start living in today

I’m all that’s in my way

Turn away from the sun into the frightening night

Brave the dark that tries to make you cry, and you’ll come out on the other side

I was lost, but then what’s the point in being found

Sing it out, the words that make you proud

All the parts of you that set you out from the crowd

Don’t you dare start holding back!

Come on, pick up the slack!

If you wanna be someone no one ever forgets

You gotta keep on forging straight ahead!

Full speed no regrets, get ready and set

Won't break (no!)

I'm wide awake

Fighting on for my own sake

Got a lot here to lose but still so much out there to gain

Won’t give in ‘till I fan this spark into a roaring flame

All your life’s what you choose to make it

Sweat and tears ‘till you wanna break it

Running off to the night to find what makes me feel alive

Everything that brought me here to today, it was my own path to take

Holding close the fire inside my mind, though it may burn, this feeling is mine

All the fear and all the uncertainty, it will fade to memory

Rising through the dawn to light my own way

I’ll fight for myself today

I’m all that’s in my way

Sparks will catch into flame or fade out into memory

It’s your choice what you’ll be, there’s no such thing as destiny

And my own enemy all along

It was me singing out a swan song

But my journey is far from done, I shout into the night

So, who’s with me?

Everything that brought me here to today

It was my own path to take

Holding close the fire inside my mind

Though it may burn, this feeling is mine

Though the moments slip on by oh so fast, my resolve will always last

Rising through the dawn to light my own way

I’ll start living in today

There’s nothing in my way
