Lyrics
I got a message from an old friend
She told me her heart was on the ground
It’s the weight of everything
It’s the bones she’s burying
Don’t give up now, trouble comes
Even in the daylight
When the world is crumbling down
Push the embers closer now, so…
We are here
We are strong
When we are one
Don’t give up now, trouble comes
Don’t give up now, trouble comes
Me and her brother went to high school
Not even 20 when he took his life
It’s the pain he was carrying
One heart can’t hold everything
Now their mother leaves a light on
She says she knows someday he’ll come home
Like the last boat into port
A lone sailor in a storm, so…
We are here
We are strong
When we are one
We are here,
We are strong
When we are one
Don’t give up now, Trouble comes
Don’t give up now, trouble comes
A shelter from the storm
A beacon for the lost
A balm for the lonely
We are here
We are strong
When we are one
We are here,
We are strong
When we are one
We are here
We are strong
When we are one
We are here,
We are strong
When we are one
We are here
We are strong
When we are one
We are here,
We are strong
When we are one
Don’t give up now, Trouble comes
Don’t give up now, trouble comes
Don’t give up now, trouble comes
Even in the daylight
When the world is crumbling down
Push the embers closer now
