I stepped out from the dark today
Into the world and I felt the light on my face
I kept trying to be the brave
When all I needed was time to be afraid
You were firing shots in the dark
Aimless and bewildered by the loss
You felt the blood run from your heart
Though the beating never stopped
Oh the beating never stopped
And even when chances are thin
Don’t surrender you can lay your claims within
Please remember that you and you alone
Burn just like embers
Don’t surrender
I drew breath from a new found fight
It gave me the strength
I needed to come back to life
For every love that has expired
There’s a universe waiting to collide
And even when chances are thin
Don’t surrender you can lay your claims within
Please remember that you and you alone
Burn just like embers
Don’t surrender
And I knew it all along
What’s worth having takes this long
No one goes it on their own just yet
And even when chances are thin
Don’t surrender you can lay your claims within
Please remember that you and you alone
Burn just like embers
Don’t surrender
