Embers

We build life up in a way that lets the world dictate us Lost track of where my roots began let our fire fade in the cold We became so empty make a heart of gold turn straight into stone I scream to the starts for a meaning to show me the way back home I don't want to be a shadow of myself I've been trapped in fear of failing myself with no light to guide me out Get up, get up don't let yourself down Pick it up come on feet don't fail me now For every step will bring me closer to removing all self-doubt Get up, get up don't let yourself down Pick it up come on feet don't fail me now Although my knees are bent and broken I know my heart won't let me drown Why do we walk with sheep while the wolf barks orders? Wanting to be him but stay buried in that life Why not start leading stop asking stars for what tomorrow holds Tomorrow holds the futures past don't fear the unknown anymore I don't want to be a shadow of myself I've been trapped in fear of failing myself with no light to guide me out Get up, get up don't let yourself down Pick it up come on feet don't fail me now For every step will bring me closer to removing all self-doubt Get up, get up don't let yourself down Pick it up come on feet don't fail me now Although my knees are bent and broken I know my heart won't let me drown We are but traces of embers starting to fade, starting to fade Give me something to remember, show us your face we're not afraid We are but a traces of embers startong to fade, starting to fade Give me something to remember, show us your face we're not afraid Get up, get up don't let yourself down Pick it up come on feet don't fail me now For every step will bring me closer to removing all self-doubt Get up, get up don't let yourself down Pick it up come on feet don't fail me now Although my knees are bent and broken I know my heart won't let me drown We are but traces of embers starting to fade, starting to fade Give me something to remember, show us your face we're not afraid We are but traces of embers starting to fade, starting to fade Give me something to remember, show us your face we're not afraid
