[Verse 1]
Another night
Concrete ceiling in my head
All these scars
Spelling out the words I never said
I’ve been bent
Like a branch in a brutal wind
Held my breath
Just to feel something again
[Chorus]
But I won’t stay down
I’m getting up
Hands in the fire
Still I won’t give up
You pulled me out when I was blind
God
You were there the whole damn time
If I fall
I fall through to the light
If I break
You’re breaking me right
[Verse 2]
Every fear
Like a shadow on my chest
Every prayer
Just a whisper at best
But You heard
Every curse that I tried to hide
Turned my rage
To a river running wide
[Chorus]
And I won’t stay down
I’m getting up
Hands in the fire
Still I won’t give up
You pulled me out when I was blind
God
You were there the whole damn time
If I fall
I fall through to the light
If I break
You’re breaking me right
[Instrumental Break]
[guitar solo over chorus progression]
[Bridge]
I was so sure I was on my own (on my own)
Talking to walls
Talking to stone
Then I felt Your hand in the dark I chose
And every locked door finally came unclosed
[Chorus]
Now I won’t stay down
I’m getting up
Hands in the fire
Still I won’t give up
You pulled me out when I was blind
God
You were there the whole damn time
If I fall
I fall through to the light
If I break
You’re breaking me right
If I fall
I fall through to the light
If I break
You’re breaking me right (yeah)
