Rise up to the sky
I'm a lonely spark of light
I'm a memory that died long ago
Follow this cycle
And give mercy to the sound and fury of our own
Sadistic emotions
Tearing skin and bone
I'll be the savior
I'll be anything you want
I'll be anything you've ever needed
It's hard to believe
When faith seems to serve me wrong
I'll keep my options open
But not for long
The world spinning on its axis
Spinning for a reason
Or for nothing at all
Do I mean nothing at all
All I want is another chance to make amends
I've made so many mistakes
But haven't we all
Weighted by life
Possessed by death
With wings spread
I take a breath
I close my eyes
And fall to the earth
If I wake up
I'll know my worth
I won't let the darkness win again
I'll keep my heart open
And when the colors fade from your eyes
I'll be there to watch you cry
I'll hold your hand and say
That it was meant to be this way
And we will die hand in hand
And then we'll do it all again
