Owl City - Embers lyrics

[Verse 1] 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 [Pre-Chorus] So I'm fanning the flames to climb so high Because there's no other way we can stay alive [Chorus] Because 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 [Verse 2] And you'll find, there'll be mornings When the ashes and embers are cold But you'll fight with a pa**ion 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 [Pre-Chorus] [Chorus] [Verse 3] Don't let the fire die It gets better Just don't let the fire die, no [Chorus] [Outro] And though the embers are new, whatever you do Just don't let the fire die Don't let the fire die
