Dawn Chorus, Darkstar [verse 1] Night terrors fade as morning breaks The monsters in my head now wide awake Future's coming faster than I planned Holding possibilities in shaking hands The path ahead obscured by blinding light After years of navigating only by night [Pre-Chorus] I'm standing at the threshold Between what was and what will be The darkness that defined me And this light I cannot see [Chorus] Dawn chorus rises with the sun Voices joining one by one Your voices finding mine In this terrifying beautiful design Dawn chorus, unexpected song Dawn chorus, carry me along Though I fear what daylight brings I'll sing with you until the morning [Verse 2] Strangers' faces turned toward mine Eyes reflecting back what they hope to find I never thought my broken parts Would resonate inside so many hearts The future's weight feels lighter when it's shared Through voices raised by those who've also dared [Pre-Chorus] I'm standing at the threshold Between what was and what will be The darkness that defined me And this light I cannot see [Chorus] Dawn chorus rises with the sun Voices joining one by one Your voices finding mine In this terrifying beautiful design Dawn chorus, unexpected song Dawn chorus, carry me along Though I fear what daylight brings I'll sing with you until the morning [Bridge] (Builds gradually from soft to powerful) The night was mine alone The darkness I could own But daybreak brings witnesses To everything I've shown Yet in your harmonies I find I'm not alone This chorus of survivors Makes me stronger than I've known [ Guitar Solo] [Final Chorus] Dawn chorus rises with the sun Voices joining one by one Your voices finding mine In this terrifying beautiful design Dawn chorus, unexpected song Dawn chorus, carry me along Though I fear what daylight brings I'll sing with you until the morning I'll sing with you beyond the morning
