lyrics

you’re standing in the light
but all you see is darkness
you’re falling back in doubt
what you perceived is flightless

so why are you holding on?
when your body is lifting away
you’re falling through open arms
sifting through all that remains

so get out of the shadow
that is dragging you down
though you could not see past the haze
that’s been hanging around
it’s so clear
the higher you get
with no fears
there are no regrets

courage is at hand to give this heart a chance
to grasp what it might not understand
so wash away the scars
they’re pulling you apart
