From Ashes Into Sun

[Verse 1]
Teeth of the past on my heels
Cold hands claw at my name
Every promise turned to rust
Every mirror filled with blame
I wore their words like iron
Heavy around my lungs
Choking on the silence
Afraid of what I'd become
[Pre-Chorus]
But a crack in the ceiling
Let a ember in
And the shadows started
Shivering
[Chorus]
I am done with the dark
It can keep my chains
I am walking through fire
I will burn these graves
From ashes into sun
I rise
I rise (hey!)
Eyes wide open
On the edge of night
I am tearing the sky just to find that light
[Verse 2]
Hallways of doubt in my mind
Every doorway marked "stay"
Fingers tracing old scars
Like a map that says "obey"
But a voice under the thunder
Whispered
"You are more"
So I kicked straight through the panic
And I ran for the open door
[Pre-Chorus]
Now the walls are cracking
Hear the past collapse
Every echo fading
Into glass
[Chorus]
I am done with the dark
It can keep my chains
I am walking through fire
I will burn these graves
From ashes into sun
I rise
I rise (oh yeah)
Eyes wide open
On the edge of night
I am tearing the sky just to find that light
[Bridge]
Let it scream
Let it howl
All the fear in my bones right now
I won't bow
I won't break
I am more than what I escaped
Let it rage
Let it roar
I am not its home anymore (anymore)
One step
One breath
I choose life over death
[Chorus]
I am done with the dark
It can keep my chains
I am walking through fire
I will burn these graves
From ashes into sun
I rise
I rise (rise!)
Eyes wide open
On the edge of night
I am tearing the sky just to find that light
From ashes into sun
I rise
I rise
I am leaving the dark in the back of my eyes
