Music: Amrita Chatterjee
I used to run from the voice inside
Whispers in silence, I tried to hide
Every shadow held a piece of me
Cracked reflections I didn't wanna see
But the night kept calling my name
And the tears kept falling like rain
I was breaking, breaking
But maybe breaking is where I start
I rise from the ashes, fire in my veins
Every scar a story, every fall a flame
No more hiding, no more fear in the fight
I was lost in the dark
Now I burn into light
Oh-ohhh, I burn into light
I wore the weight like it fit me well
Built my walls like a wishing well
But dreams don't grow behind stone and steel
You gotta bleed sometimes to heal
But the truth kept echoing clear
Even pain was worth what brought me here
I was fading, fadingβ
But maybe fading gave me sight
I rise from the ashes, fire in my soul
Took the pieces, made them whole
No more silence, I'm taking flight
I was bound by the dark
Now I shine into light
Oh-ohhh, I shine into light
"Who am I without the pain?"
"Who am I when I'm not chained?"
Every tear, every break
Built the wings I couldn't fake
I rise from the ashes, brighter than before
Every wound a window, every crack a door
No more shadows, no more hiding the light
I was forged by the dark
Now I blaze into light
Oh-ohhh, I blaze into light
I blaze into light
Once I feared the fire
Now I am the flame
