The Dawning
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
As the sun rises again
And I shed my outer skin
So it's time to start another day
You say I have to realize
But I won't swallow my pride
My eyes are fixed on another prize
For all my life I've been waiting for this moment
I've waited so long, for this
For the chance to prove you wrong
Lost and confused, bout I found the light
The light will guide me through
Crawled out from the street last night
Begging me to give you a try
But I won't give in to your lies
And now I have to realize
That i won't swallow my pride
My eyes are fixed on another prize
For all my life I've waited for this moment
And now the time has come for you to see
As the sun rises again
I'll shed my outer skin
As the sun rises again
