I once woke up and I felt like rising hope When I see the light shine down on me I like to be in the summer breeze Trying to keep the strength in me The light of day And death of night Fire and ice I knew you were gonna take me down Oh, no, you're gonna take me down I felt alone, I was going down In the dark, always feeling scared It's so unfair you make me feel this way I need to turn it all around The light of day And death of night Fire and ice I knew you were gonna take me down Oh, no, you're gonna take me down I knew you were gonna take me down Oh, no, you're gonna take me down Ooh, I can't take this pressure anymore Must have hope, I can't give up Ooh, staring down at broken glass I'm alive and I'll survive I knew you were gonna take me down Oh, no, you're gonna take me down I knew you were gonna take me down Oh, no, you're gonna take me down
