Through All The Lights

(verse 1)
It's a cold night, and I'm seventeen
I've got the cold sweats, and the shaky knees
And no hair on my body there to shield me from the breeze
Scars across my chest while I fight this thing

But I've got love
More love than I've ever seen
More love than an ocean crashing down on top of me
I'm in a battle for my life, with all these people fighting
Holding me right up to the sky, I'm heightened

Two years to the day, I'm looking back
Standing in that same room, same place thinking that
It's all fine, I'm going to be alright
'Cause I made it this far, and I made it through the fight

So if you've ever battled put your hands up
If you've ever fought and won, c'mon stand up
To the sky in the clouds is where you took me
And then you showed me what I never thought I could see

(chorus)
Through all the lights and all the sound,
In the best of the worst as I fall to the ground
I've seen how we can go high
I've seen how we can go high, we can go high
I've seen how we can go high

(verse 2)
Yea, you touched my life and it's so unreal,
Who would have thought so many people had the power to heal
And you were there, always there, to lift me up
And when I fell, yea you got me, and picked me up

And it's funny how, you never notice a star
Until the sun is gone, and everything is dark
How close we become when we fall apart,
And all the people that are with you even from the start

'Cause when I look around, everything's the same shade of gray
I'm falling down simply trying to make it through the day
And every step that I take is getting worse
Every single inch, is harder than the first

So can we go now, and never slow down,
You took me to the top, I'm on my own now
And then you grabbed me by the hand and you showed how,
All the lights in the dark start to glow now

(chorus)

(verse 3)
Here and now I want to tell you that it wasn't that hard-
That it was all good, and when I look at these scars,
I can tell you that I'm fine and that it never got the best of me
All those painful moments now are only faded memories but,

If I did, I know it'd be a lie
'Cause I can still recall all the nights that I'd cry
I'd sit and I'd hide, all alone, half alive,
Acting like a superman but breaking down inside

And life is just a broken road, sometimes it needs smoothing out
You're waiting for a miracle, to stop it all from pooling out
And sometimes it's too much to bear, and think about
But when you're feeling Tinie you just scream until they hear you out 'cause,

We get up and then we fall,
And then we keep on pushing, moving forward through it all
And even through the storm, all the rain, and all the fog,
I think we just might make it through OK after all

(chorus)
