WHERE THE SHADOWS END

Though I felt so small

I lost my way somewhere inside
The broken pieces I tried to hide
Every road led back to pain
Every sunrise looked the same

I heard a voice beneath the rain
A distant whisper through the shame

You're not the shadow that you bear
You're still alive
You're still there

And somewhere beyond the night
Something was calling me

I couldn't see it
But I could feel it

WHERE THE SHADOWS END
THERE'S A LIGHT BEYOND THE NIGHT
I WILL RISE, I WILL RISE
I WILL LEAVE THIS DARKNESS BEHIND

LET THE BROKEN WINGS OPEN WIDE
LET THE OLD ME FALL TONIGHT
I HAVE WALKED THROUGH HELL AND BACK
NOW I'M RUNNING TOWARD THE LIGHT

The road grew cold beneath my feet
The ghosts I carried wouldn't sleep
Every scar became a name
Every tear became a flame

I fell again
I lost my breath
I stood between the fear and death

And then I heard that voice once more
Stronger than I'd heard before

GET UP

So I raised my eyes
Into the storm

And for the first time
I wasn't afraid

WHERE THE SHADOWS END
THERE'S A LIGHT BEYOND THE NIGHT
I WILL RISE, I WILL RISE
I WILL LEAVE THIS DARKNESS BEHIND

LET THE BROKEN WINGS OPEN WIDE
LET THE OLD ME FALL TONIGHT
I HAVE WALKED THROUGH HELL AND BACK
NOW I'M RUNNING TOWARD THE LIGHT

I thought the light
Was something I had lost

I thought redemption
Had a price

But maybe...

Maybe the light
Was waiting for me
All along

I'M STILL HERE

I'M STILL BREATHING

I'M STILL ALIVE

AND I WILL RISE

WHERE THE SHADOWS END
THERE'S A LIGHT BEYOND THE NIGHT
I WILL RISE, I WILL RISE
LIKE A FIRE INTO THE SKY

LET THE BROKEN WINGS OPEN WIDE
LET THE OLD ME FALL BEHIND
ALL THE YEARS I LOST IN DARKNESS
COULDN'T TAKE MY SOUL TONIGHT

I HAVE WALKED THROUGH HELL AND BACK
I HAVE CARRIED EVERY SCAR
NOW THE DARKNESS CAN'T HOLD ME
I REMEMBER WHO WE ARE

WHERE THE SHADOWS END

I FOUND THE LIGHT

AND I WILL RISE

I WILL RIIIIISE

The darkness ends...

Where the light begins.
