V6

[Intro – heartbeat / distorted whisper] Nobody's coming. [Drums slam in] So get up. [Verse 1] I spent my life beside the window Waiting for a hand Waiting for a hero Waiting for someone to understand I prayed until my knees were bleeding Screamed until I lost my voice Then silence gave me something I had never had before A choice [Pre-Chorus] No angel at the doorway No savior in the rain If I want out of this burning house I'll walk through the flames [Chorus] SAVE YOURSELF! GET UP! GET OUT! TEAR THE CHAINS FROM YOUR HEART! SAVE YOURSELF! SCREAM LOUD! YOU WERE NEVER BORN TO DIE IN THE DARK! No one can breathe for you No one can live your life Take my hand if you need it BUT YOU HAVE TO RISE! SAVE YOURSELF! SAVE YOURSELF TONIGHT! [Verse 2] I know the floor feels safer When you've forgotten how to stand I know that hope sounds cruel When nothing happens like you planned But every scar upon your body Every night you made it through Is evidence the darkness Never finished killing you [Pre-Chorus] So let somebody love you Let somebody know your name But don't confuse being rescued With learning how to change [Chorus] SAVE YOURSELF! GET UP! GET OUT! TEAR THE CHAINS FROM YOUR HEART! SAVE YOURSELF! SCREAM LOUD! YOU WERE NEVER BORN TO DIE IN THE DARK! No one can breathe for you No one can live your life Take my hand if you need it BUT YOU HAVE TO RISE! SAVE YOURSELF! SAVE YOURSELF TONIGHT! [Post-Chorus] Rise! Rise! Rise! [Instrumental – driving riff] [Bridge – Female, quiet] And if tomorrow you fall again... that doesn't mean you failed. It means you're human. Get up again. [Silence] Again. [Breakdown] ONE MORE STEP! WHEN YOUR LEGS SAY NO! ONE MORE BREATH! WHEN YOU CAN'T LET GO! ONE MORE NIGHT! ONE MORE DAWN! ONE MORE REASON TO KEEP HOLDING ON! [Choir] RISE! [Female] I can't save you! [Choir] RISE! [Female] But I can stand beside you! [Choir] RISE! [Female] Until you remember... [Silence] [Female] ...how to save yourself. [Final Chorus – Full Orchestra] SAVE YOURSELF! GET UP! GET OUT! LET THE WHOLE WORLD HEAR YOUR HEART! SAVE YOURSELF! STAND PROUD! YOU WERE NEVER MADE TO DIE IN THE DARK! AND IF YOU NEED SOMEBODY I'LL BE RIGHT HERE TONIGHT BUT I WON'T STEAL THE MOMENT WHEN YOU LEARN THAT YOU CAN FIGHT! SAVE YOURSELF! SAVE YOURSELF! SAVE YOURSELF TONIGHT! [Choir] Rise! Rise! Rise! [Outro] Nobody came to save me. So I became the one who stayed.
