[Verse 1]
Empty highway
Midnight in my chest
All these broken yesterdays
Pinned under my vest
City in the rearview
Tear-salt on my tongue
Asking every shadow
What I’ve become
[Chorus]
Even when it’s dangerous
I’m still standing in this fire
Holding to a promise
Like a cross made out of wire
I’ve got my faith in God
When my heart’s too weak to beat
I believe
I believe
I will keep living on my knees
(turn it into wings for me)
[Verse 2]
Every scar a story
Carved into my hands
I’ve been crawling
I’ve been falling
Too afraid to stand
But Your name is thunder
Breaking through my fear
In the silence of my doubt
I feel You here
[Chorus]
Even when it’s dangerous
I’m still standing in this fire
Holding to a promise
Like a cross made out of wire
I’ve got my faith in God
When my heart’s too weak to beat
I believe
I believe
I will keep living on my knees
‘till my failing feet find peace
[Bridge]
When the night screams louder than my prayer
When the weight is more than I can bear
You lift my eyes above the flames
Call me out by my first name (yeah)
[Chorus]
Even when it’s dangerous
I’m still standing in this fire
Holding to a promise
Like a cross made out of wire
I’ve got my faith in God
When my heart’s too weak to beat
I believe
I believe
I will keep living on my knees
‘cause Your mercy’s holding me
[Instrumental]
