[Verse 1] Small hands, big bruise Schoolbag torn at the seam Daddy gone, mama cried House fell quiet in between She learned to smile like glass Learned to hide the cracks Kept her name in her teeth Kept her heart in the back [Pre-Chorus] And every night She heard that old lie (you won't survive) But she stayed alive [Chorus] From ashes to dawn She won't stay gone From ashes to dawn She carries on (hold on) (hold on) From ashes to dawn She's coming home [Verse 2] Needle friends in the dark Pills like coins in her palm She was numb, she was wrecked Trying to buy back calm Fell down hard, lost her keys Lost her faith, lost her years But one cold sober morning She saw herself in tears [Pre-Chorus] And every night She heard that old lie (you won't survive) But she stayed alive [Chorus] From ashes to dawn She won't stay gone From ashes to dawn She carries on (hold on) (hold on) From ashes to dawn She's coming home [Bridge] Break the chain Spit out the shame Take your name Say it again Hands on her chest Heart still there Scars like maps But she got air [Final Chorus] From ashes to dawn She won't stay gone From ashes to dawn She carries on (hold on) (hold on) From ashes to dawn She's coming home From ashes to dawn She lives, she lives on
