[Verse 1]
The first words I learned
Were born in the absence of hope
And trust wasn't something I'd ever dreamed of
In the nightmare of hate
But I'm learning to live in a place where
[Chorus]
Skies open wide
(This awakening, my awakening)
The night shines so clear
(This awakening, my awakening)
My life's taken flight
There's a reason I breathe
Cause my heart is the beat
To the song that you sing in my life
[Verse 2]
The bridges I've burned
Have singed every part of my soul
And the smell of the blistering flame still haunts me
And the smoke blinds my eyes
But I won't be walking in these flames alone
[Chorus]
Skies open wide
(This awakening, my awakening)
The night shines so clear
(This awakening, my awakening)
My life's taken flight
There's a reason I breathe
Cause my heart is the beat
To the song that you sing in my life
[Bridge]
My need for pain has slipped away
My need to punish myself has crept away
All since the advent of grace
All since the wonder of grace
My feet are leaving the ground
Gravity is no longer found here
[Chorus]
Skies open wide
(This awakening, my awakening)
The night shines so clear
(This awakening, my awakening)
My life's taken flight
There's a reason I breathe
Cause my heart is the beat
To the song that you sing in my life
[Outro]
