Is there anybody out there? Is there anyone that's left? Is there any way I can make it out alive? What is left that they've not taken? What is left beyond the pain? What is left of truth when I only hear their lies? There's a fire in my heart to keep the dark at bay But my defenses have decayed So I pray for a change to begin inside For the courage to not run and hide Is it shame, is it fеar that controls my mind? When I wake, I can't tell what is right from thе wrong But no matter what happens, I must carry on In the darkness before the dawn In the darkness before the dawn! I can feel my body shaking I can feel all of the fear I can feel the demons, but I can't let them win And my broken heart is weary And my broken words confess And my broken spirit will conquer every sin There's a fire in my heart to keep the dark at bay But my defenses have decayed So I pray for a change to begin inside For the courage to not run and hide Is it shame, is it fear that controls my mind? When I wake, I can't tell what is right from the wrong But no matter what happens, I must carry on In the darkness before the dawn So I take on the change that begins inside For the courage to not run and hide No more shame, no more fear to control my mind When I wake, I can't tell what is right from the wrong But no matter what happens, I must carry on In the darkness before the dawn Awake the dark, awake the dark (In the darkness before the dawn) Awake the dark In the darkness before the dawn
