Beat by beat, and line by line
I've got a hole in my heart that once had pride
For fifteen years and in my time
Watch my life flash right before my eyes
I'm fading into be unfamiliar
I'm spending my time holding my breath
If you're gonna' tear me down
Then you better have both feet planted on the ground
Open up your eyes and let the light in
Take a shot in the dark
I've got my ear to the ground and my eye on the prize
Take a leap of faith, we've gotta' learn how to fly
It's my time to shine, I'm gonna' light up the world
'Til I'm the last one standing
Locked inside a room without a door
Found a crack spreading all along the floor
I saw bright light through the divide
So I dug my way through to the other side
What happened to the burning desire
For you to pull yourself back to your feet?
If you're gonna' tear me down
Then you better have both feet planted on the ground
Open up your eyes and let the light in
Take a shot in the dark
I've got my ear to the ground and my eye on the prize
Take a leap of faith, we've gotta' learn how to fly
It's my time to shine, I'm gonna' light up the world
'Til I'm the last one standing
All the years knowing the truth with nothing to lose
In time the stars will align and show you the proof
But will it matter to you if I ever pull through?
Save me
Bring me back to life
If you're gonna' tear me down
Then you better have both feet planted on the ground
Open up your eyes and let the light in
Take a shot in the dark
I've got my ear to the ground and my eye on the prize
Take a leap of faith, we've gotta' learn how to fly
It's my time to shine, I'm gonna' light up the world
'Til I'm the last one standing
