You trace the edge of a shadow
Think that’s all there is to find
Hands in your pockets, head down
Lost in a hallway in your mind
But there’s a crack in the black
Little color leaking through
Every fear that you’re holding
Wants a softer place, wants truth
[Chorus]
Magic is the key
When the dark is all you see
Turn the lock inside your chest
Let your wild heart do the rest
Magic is the key
To a wonderful imagination
Pull the sunrise from the night
Hold your happiness in light (oh-oh)
[Verse 2]
You stack your worries like towers
Let them block your favorite view
But one brave breath, one small step
Brings the hidden world to you
There’s a door in every shadow
Painted in your secret tones
Every dream you thought you’d buried
Wants to come back, wants a home
[Chorus]
Magic is the key
When the dark is all you see
Turn the lock inside your chest
Let your wild heart do the rest
Magic is the key
To a wonderful imagination
From the hollow of the night
You can lift your joy in light (yeah)
[Bridge]
Up from the darkness
Rises all you’ve never tried
Tiny spark in your fingers
Beats like hope, beats like life
You’re the keeper of the secret
You’re the spell you couldn’t see
Say the words under your breathing
“I am more, I am free” (I am free)
[Chorus]
Magic is the key
When the dark is all you see
Turn the lock inside your chest
Let your wild heart do the rest
Magic is the key
To a wonderful imagination
All that happiness you hide
Let the magic pull it
From the darkness to the bright side
