Light at the end of the tunnel

Verse 1
Rain on the windshield, midnight on the clock
Bills on the counter, dreams in a box
Radio’s quiet, just my heartbeat loud
Feels like I’m shouting but there’s no one around
I tried to be strong, tried not to break
But hope feels heavy after too many mistakes

Pre-Chorus
Every road I’ve taken
Feels like it led me nowhere fast
I’m tired of pretending
That this pain won’t last

Chorus
When everything falls apart and feels like you’re alone
And nothing’s gonna get better, like you’re carrying it on your own
When the dark feels endless and your faith feels hollow
Just keep walking, don’t turn back now
‘Cause even when you can’t see it coming through
There’s always light at the end of the tunnel

Verse 2
Old boots by the door, dust on my pride
Mirror keeps showing the parts I hide
I’ve lost some battles, lost some friends
Prayed for answers that never came
But mama always said through tears and pain
Storms don’t last forever, they just test your faith

Pre-Chorus
So I breathe in deeper
Even when my hands still shake
I tell myself tomorrow
Might be the break I need to make

Chorus
When everything falls apart and feels like you’re alone
And nothing’s gonna get better, like you’re carved out of stone
When the dark feels endless and your faith feels hollow
Just keep walking, don’t turn back now
‘Cause even when you can’t see it coming through
There’s always light at the end of the tunnel

Bridge
I’ve seen the sun rise after sleepless nights
Watched broken hearts learn how to fight
If you’re standing on the edge right now
Just know this isn’t where it all runs out

Break (Half Chorus / Instrumental Feel)
Hold on… just a little longer
You’re stronger than you know

Final Chorus
When everything falls apart and feels like you’re alone
And nothing’s gonna get better, like hope has up and gone
When the dark feels endless and your faith feels hollow
Just keep walking, don’t turn back now
Even scars can shine if you let them show
Yeah, there’s always light at the end of the tunnel

Outro
So I’ll keep moving forward, one step at a time
Trusting the dawn after this long night
I’m still here, and that means something too
There’s always light at the end of the tunnel
