[Verse 1] I left with a cracked-up map And a name I could barely trust Boots full of the road's cold dust Heart heavy in the back of the truck The moon kept losing its face Every mile was a locked-up door I was tired of the same old ache Tired of asking, "What for?" [Pre-Chorus] But I kept moving, kept moving on Past the wreckage, past the wrong Every fear that I outgrew Started fading when I chose you [Chorus] Through the black, I kept on walking Through the black, till I saw dawn Through the black, I heard you calling Said, "Keep going, hold on" Through the black, through the black I found the place I belong Through the black, through the black My whole life turned around [Verse 2] Rain hit hard on the windshield Like a hand on a stubborn door I remembered every good thing That I had forgotten before A little hope in my pocket A little fire in my chest I learned the dark was only a passage Not the house where I'd be left [Pre-Chorus] So I kept moving, kept moving on Past the wreckage, past the wrong Every fear that I outgrew Started fading when I chose you [Chorus] Through the black, I kept on walking Through the black, till I saw dawn Through the black, I heard you calling Said, "Keep going, hold on" Through the black, through the black I found the place I belong Through the black, through the black My whole life turned around [Bridge] I was not born to stay in pieces I was not made for a grave Something broke, and something opened When I stepped into the rain Now the road looks different Now my hands don't shake What I thought would finish me Was the thing that made me change [Final Chorus] Through the black, I kept on walking Through the black, till I saw dawn Through the black, I heard you calling Said, "Keep going, hold on" Through the black, through the black I found the place I belong Through the black, through the black My whole life turned around [Outro] Turned around Turned around Through the black, into the light
