Shine & Fade

I walk through the darkness In fear all my own I feel something with me It's stays all but known Then my gaze lifts up slightly There's a small light ahead Heart beating faster With hope or with dread A voice cries out Now's your time to shine Surrender it all I won't let you fall Now's your time to shine The path is not easy But I've walked it for you When your faith starts fading I'm the one you turn to Your presence is with me No more fear as I run I dive off the edge Right into your arms Father you catch me I give you my all Darkness is fading the light now comes through The light now within me Shines bright Fading Into You I stumble through the black A coward carved in bone Something claws beside me A shadow I've always known My breath chokes on silence A fear I can't outgrow It whispers through the void Too close too cold to show Then a flicker ignites A pulse I can't deny My heart's a fractured beat Is this hope or a lie A voice rips through the static Step out it's time to burn Surrender every shred I'm falling watch me turn Screaming Don't let me break You swear I won't descend This light's my last escape Shine now or it's the end The road's a jagged scar You bled to carve it true When faith collapses fast I'm clawing back to you No more trembling steps I'm running through the haze The edge is calling loud I leap into the blaze A voice rips through the static Step out it's time to burn Surrender every shred I'm falling watch me turn Screaming Don't let me break You swear I won't descend This light's my last escape Shine now or it's the end Father you catch the wreck I've become Arms like anchors pulling me from the numb The dark's a ghost retreating slow Your fire floods where shadows grow I'm weightless screaming whole The light's alive it tears my soul It's burning through my veins No fear no hollow fight The dark can't choke me now I'm shining through the night Shining through the night
