There's a fire in the silence Waking slowly under my skin Every shadow starts to loosen Letting all the light come in I can feel the storm inside me Turning into something brave Every whisper says it's time Time to rise above the waves And I'm breathing For the first time in forever Awakening flame Burning through the fear again Every heartbeat calls my name Like a spark I can't contain Awakening flame Rising from the cold and pain I'm no longer who I've been This is where my fire begins Every bruise became a lesson Every tear a guiding light I'm not running from the darkness I am learning how to fight There's a glow beneath the ashes Breaking through the heavy night Every scar becomes a lantern Pointing me back to my life And I'm breathing For the first time in forever Awakening flame Burning through the fear again Every heartbeat calls my name Like a spark I can't contain Awakening flame Rising from the cold and pain I'm no longer who I've been This is where my fire begins I won't fade I won't break Let the fire take its shape Through my skin Through my bones I am rising, not alone Awakening flame Burning through the fear again Every heartbeat calls my name Like a spark I can't contain Awakening flame This is who I am again Through the smoke I rise unchained Awakening flame
