Testo I Won't Fall Again

Testo I Won't Fall Again

I was raised by the roadside
From the cold and empty skies
With the wind as my only friend
Hearing all my silent cries
I've been walking through the dark
For a time I can't defend
But I feel it in my heart now
This broken road is gonna bend

It's been a long slow burning night
But I see a spark begin
Yeah, the tide will turn
Oh, the tide will turn

Some doors were closing
Before I could knock
And voices in the distance
Sayin', "You don't belong"
I kept carrying silence
Like a weight in my chest
But a whisper keeps on rising
Sayin', "You deserve the rest"
It's been a long hard climb uphill
But I feel the shift within
Yeah, the tide will turn
Oh, the tide will turn

Oh, I reach for a life-line
But it slipped through my hands
Still, I stood in the wreckage
Tryin' hard to stand
There were days I was fading
In the weight of it all
But I found something in me
Wouldn't let me fall

It's been a long, long road to here
But I know I can begin
Yeah, the tide will turn
Oh, yes, it will
