KIORA - Before the Dawn

I was standing where the streetlights fade Breathing in what we never said Every step felt half-awake Like the night was scared to break If this is the edge of the fall If this is the moment before it all Don’t leave me here in the dark Say my name, strike the spark After the night and before the dawn I’m burning louder than I was before If this is the fire you tried to outrun Let it take me, I’m not afraid anymore I won’t fade, I won’t drown I rise where the shadows come undone Between the fear and the truth I found I am the light after the spark I remember how the silence shook Every promise we never took I was waiting for a sign You were running out of time If this is where we collide If this is the truth we tried to hide Don’t whisper like it’s a crime Say it now, don’t let it die After the night and before the dawn I’m breaking open what you shut down If I was wrong for wanting more I’d rather burn than disappear now I won’t fade, I won’t fall I stand where the shadows run Between the dark and the rise of it all I am the light after the spark Hold me in the almost Touch me in the then If this is the ending Let it begin again After the night and before the dawn Hear me calling from the fire inside I was born for this moment alone I won’t hide, I won’t run, I won’t deny I won’t fade, I won’t drown Watch me rise when the world goes numb Between the dark and the breaking ground I am the light after the spark
