Fight for Dawn

Rain on the asphalt,

the city is cold

Staring at the reflection of a story untold

Bottle in the hand,

trying to quiet the scream

Chasing a ghost in a feverish dream But the block keeps watching,

the shadows they creep Another long night when I'm too tired to

sleep Felt the pull of the dust,

felt the weight of the fall But I'm standing right here with

my back to the wall

Now the clouds are parting,

I can see the dawn (yeah)

Every single scar is where the light was born (we made it

out)

Raise the banners high,

let the music play I'm throwing out the ashes of yesterday

Used to seek shelter in a powder-white haze Lost in the maze

of those ruinous days Every step was a battle with the devil

inside Nowhere left for a broken spirit to hide But I broke

through the cage, took a breath of the air

Traded my chains for a silent prayer Now the rhythm is steady,

the vision is clear No more running away from the ghosts of

the fear

Now the clouds are parting,

I can see the dawn (yeah)

Every single scar is where the light was born (we made it

out)

Raise the banners high,

let the music play I'm throwing out the ashes of yesterday

Out of the dark (hah) Into the light

Yeah, we won the fight
