Embers- Owl City

My favorite song. I hope you listen to it.

There were days when each hour was a war I fought to survive
There were nights full of nightmares and I dreaded closing my eyes
There were skies that burst open with a downpour to drown me alive
But the world took a spark like a match in the dark
And the fire brought me to life

So I'm sending the flames to climb so high
'Cause theres no other way we can stay alive

'Cause we're burning bright
As we all unite
And when it's all said and done
We'll shine like the sun
So don't let the fire die
And we'll watch the sky
As it fills with light
And though the embers are new
Whatever you do, just don't let the fire die

And you'll find there'll be mornings
When the ashes and embers are cold
But you'll fight with a passion
And you'll never stop 'cause you know
Yeah you know, it gets better
And your story is yet to be told
Every push, every shove, every war, every love
Yeah, the coals are beginning to glow

So I'm sending the flames to climb so high
'Cause theres no other way we can stay alive

'Cause we're burning bright
As we all unite
And when it's all said and done
We'll shine like the sun
So don't let the fire die
And we'll watch the sky
As it fills with light
And though the embers are new
Whatever you do, just don't let the fire die

Don't let the fire die
It gets better
Just don't let the fire die, no

'Cause we're burning bright (burning bright)
As we all unite
And when it's all said and done
We'll shine like the sun
So don't let the fire die
And we'll watch the sky (watch the sky)
As it fills with light
And though the embers are new
Whatever you do, just don't let the fire die

And though the embers are new
Whatever you do, just don't let the fire die
Don't let the fire die.

Be Strong

I know it's hard now, But things will get better. It may be stormy now, But it can't rain forever. The darkness takes over, And all you can do is run. But hang in tight there, It's almost dawn.

Underdogs

Billions of scoffs, Against one I believe. That one is enough, To make all sadness recede. A million head shakes, Against a couple nods. The effect is startling, Like help from the Gods.

Challenges

Can anyone face anything. Handle all that life may bring. Armed with love and shielded by kin Loss and pain will never win. Look for truth amidst legions of lies Everything that lives surely dies.

Lionheart

Pull out the courage They screamed. Move forward like a King, Filled with passion it seemed. We're the same, Yet now we're old. Give me your Lionheart, Forever long to hold.

Forever and ever from here on, I will stand up and fight when called upon. For my friends, for what I believe in, For what is true and where I can stop pain.

Smile And Shine

Against all the bad around you. Turn your back for just a moment. And smile. When you feel down and afraid. Look the fear in the eyes. And smile. When all seems hopeless and sad.
