In over my head
In a sea of black
Try’na pick up the pieces
Feeling lost and all alone
Looking for signs through the window
Just gotta break the silence
Dig my way outta this hole
‘cos I could waste all my life
Waiting for lightning in the dark
Or I could decide
That I can make fire
All I need is a spark
Don’t wanna waste all my life
Drowning in all these question marks
Or I could decide
That I can make fire
I’m done waiting for
Lightning in the dark
I found the light inside my heart
Ignite the flame and set it off
no stopping me I know I’m done
Waiting for lightning in the dark
I found the light inside my heart
I’ll burn the sky I’ll rip it up
No touching me
I know I’m done (waiting for
Lightning)
I’m not laying down
I’m not shutting up
I’m out blazing like a rocket
I never knew I could burn a flame
Through the ice and the cold rain
I won’t be scared about it
I just take a match to the tear stains
I was lonely as the last survivor
Lost along
The edge not anymore
Now I’m alive
Not just surviving
Or waiting for the lightning
Anymore
