too long in the dark

Verse 1

If you’re listening tonight

Give me something I can feel

I’ve been screaming at the sky

Just to know this pain is real

Give me proof I’m not a ghost

Still bleeding under skin

Every breath is razor thin

But I’m not done giving in

Pre-Chorus

My lungs are burning empty

My faith is hanging by a wire

But there’s a spark inside the ashes

And it’s begging for the fire

Chorus

Oh God, I need a sign

To know I’m still alive

To feel the weight of every scar

And know I’ll survive

Through the fall, through the night

Through the hell I crawl inside

I just need to know

I’m still alive

Yeah— I’m still alive

Verse 2

It’s been too long in the dark

With the venom in my veins

I need thunder in my chest

Need to wake my frozen brain

Every wound I ever carried

Tried to drag me to the grave

But I’m standing in the wreckage

Still unbroken, still enraged

Pre-Chorus

I’ve tasted fear like poison

I’ve worn pain like my skin

If this world was meant to kill me

Then it should’ve tried again

Chorus

Oh God, I need a sign

To know I’m still alive

To feel the weight of every scar

And know I’ll survive

Through the fire, through the fight

Through the blood I swallowed dry

I just need to know

I’m still alive

Yeah— I’m still alive

As long as my faith stands tall

I rise every time I fall

This road is carved in flame and stone

But it’s leading me back home

As long as my faith stands tall

I will not break, I will not crawl

I’ve bled enough to know my name

I was born to walk through flames

Oh God, thank you for the spark

I can feel it in my heart

Every nerve is screaming truth

I can survive anything

Through the dark, through the pain

Through the ghosts I couldn’t tame

Now I know, now I feel

I’m still alive

Yeah— I’m still alive

I’m still alive

Oh.

Still breathing

Yeah— I’m still alive
