[Verse]
A thorn in the side
It whispers so low
The rose doesn’t bloom without scars to show
The rain cuts the earth
The rivers will flow
Why does it sting
When it helps us grow?
[Prechorus]
The moon pulls the tide
The pull feels unfair
But the ocean survives
It’s always still there
[Chorus]
Sometimes we bleed to feel alive
Sometimes the fall is how we rise
The bitter truth
The sweet disguise
Lessons in pain
Open your eyes
[Verse 2]
The fire burns bright
It leaves us undone
But ashes will cradle the birth of the sun
A shadow will stretch when it’s touched by the light
The darkest of nights gives stars their right
[Prechorus]
The wind tears the trees
Bends them in two
But the roots dig deep
They’ll see it through
[Chorus]
Sometimes we bleed to feel alive
Sometimes the fall is how we rise
The bitter truth
The sweet disguise
Lessons in pain
Open your eyes
