[Verse 1] This life ain't what it's cracked up to be Bell ringing but I'm lost inside me (yea) Heart racing with the pain I see Echoes haunting, my own remedy (yea) Can't shake off that feelin' of dread Every step feels heavy like lead Eating thoughts that swim in my head Can't find peace, wish I were dead [Chorus] So here I stand with my soul on fire It's hard to breathe when you're lost in the wire Oh, just hold on to dreams of light Fight through the shadows, find the night [Verse 2] Staring at the mirror, hear the cracks show Runnin’ from the truth, but I can't let it go (yeah) Voices whispering, what's real or fake? Days fade into nights, can't tell what’s at stake (yeah) Mind racing, can't keep up with the pace Fallen soldier in this endless race Screaming out loud, trapped in this space Finding strength, I won't be erased [Chorus] So here I stand with my soul on fire It's hard to breathe when you're lost in the wire Oh, just hold on to dreams of light Fight through the shadows, find the night [Bridge] In darkness, there's a spark to ignite Don't lose hope, push with all of your might Every tear has a story to tell Rise from ashes, break out of this hell [Chorus] So here I stand with my soul on fire It's hard to breathe when you're lost in the wire Oh, just hold on to dreams of light Fight through the shadows, find the night
