Full Lyrics
So I stood in the ashes and opened the blinds,
and the sun hit my face like a friend,
who reminds that love never ends,
it just changes shape,
and I'm still here,
and I'm still awake
I walk with the ache,
but I walk in the light,
my memory's gold,
my future bright,
the past won't chain me,
I've earned my flame,
I carry his love,
but I live my name
We rise, we mend, we bloom again,
we build from tears,
we call it when a soul's been kissed, then torn apart
but music grows in every heart
So here's to love, and here's to pain,
to loss, to hope, to dancing in rain,
we write our endings fierce and true
with glittered scars and skies of blue.
We live out loud, we say our names,
we hold our joy, we light our flames
through every grief we find our grace.
And in that grace we find our place
You were my chapter, not my end,
now I begin again, my friend.
And still I sing
And still I love,
because grief ends,
but the soul soars above
