Verse 1 When the darkness comes, And the shadows start to play, I hear your ghost around me, Trying to pull me back again. And every word you left behind Still echoes in my head, But I’m learning not to lose myself In everything you said. Pre-Chorus I don’t know why I’m holding on, I don’t know where this road will end, But even when I’m falling down, I’ll find my feet again. Chorus So I’ll stand here with my arms stretched high, Even when I don’t know why. I may bend, I may break, I may lose my way, But I won’t let the darkness take me. If I’m scared, I’ll still move on, If I’m lost, I’ll face the dawn. I don’t need to know what comes next, I just need to carry on. Verse 2 Every reaction feels cursed, Like the ending’s already written, But maybe life is more than pain, More than all the words unspoken. The memories may fade away, And the ghosts may disappear, But I’ll keep the lessons that remain And leave behind the fear. Pre-Chorus I don’t know why I’m holding on, But something tells me to stay. Maybe I don’t need all the answers, Maybe I just need one more day. Chorus So I’ll stand here with my arms stretched high, Even when I don’t know why. I may bend, I may break, I may lose my way, But I won’t let the darkness take me. If I’m scared, I’ll still move on, If I’m lost, I’ll face the dawn. I don’t need to know what comes next, I just need to carry on. Bridge And if the night comes back again, I’ll remember what I’ve survived. The storm can shake these walls around me, But it won’t take what’s still alive. I’ve said goodbye to who I was, But I’m not saying goodbye to me. Final Chorus So I’ll stand here with my arms stretched high, And let the tears fall from my eyes. I may bend, I may break, But I’ll rise again, And I’ll meet the morning light. I don’t know where this road will lead, But there’s still a part of me That believes there’s something waiting On the other side of the night. Outro When the darkness comes, I’ll remember I can stay. The shadows may surround me, But they don’t get to have the final say.
