If you drown me in the night, ain't no way that I would know Even if there isn't light, I will find a way to grow I would feel the star is shining in me with a lively glow That's how I been living through the darkness while I'm on the low Darkness not the enemy, but rather what's beneath What is lurking in the shadow, what is lurking underneath What is there to make you lose your breath and shatter up your teeth When there's nothing used for cover since your world is incomplete Darkness not the enemy the evil would create Causing self-inflicted fear that they would truly both relate Go against the tide, and the wave that is within Choose to panic or to stand, that is when the test begins Rather not be here, but then this where I belong Though I could be out there finding something that I've always longed Rather not be here, but I know I'm going strong I will keep on moving something's out there waiting all along Wrong, I been right, I been living in the night Ain't no fall that would come kill me up from any given height Drop me from wherever even if it's out of sight I can see right through the dark while you'd be soaking down in fright Ain't nobody know what I had gone through just to live There been times where I had traded what I wanted just to give So I would survive but those I would not relive Though I told myself and you that I would truly do forgive Down here in the hole, my reality had died All I have is dreams, I been having with the moon and tide Light shall not escape, it is simply here to guide It is what I have to follow, it has been here on my side Darkness not the enemy, but rather it is fear All the waters coming down, never wipe away a tear Coming down to get you, mind should now be in the clear Fall or drown, it doesn't matter, but that you should persevere Fight to keep the light inside, never let it free Never let the wall around me get into my memories Hold on to the tape, I will never let it go If you drown me in the night, ain't no way that I would know Wrong, I been right, I been living in the night Ain't no fall that would come kill me up from any given height Drop me from wherever even if it's out of sight I can see right through the dark while you'd be soaking down in fright Growing through the soil requires a fight The roots push out while being restrained Spread thy wings out into the night With every bit of knowledge thou have gained Keep those eyes closed and battle it right Rain will not stop, along with the highest of tides Rain comes down until it drowns the light Time will now be thou only guide When the roots have spread, thou time is near Stand up high 'till thou will rise up to the sky Remember where thou grew and what thou feared Upon the exit, thou will never have to say goodbye Soil will never move if it has never received a pierce It would never give in until thou would lose sight Rain may be peaceful, and may not be as fierce But never go gentle while blooming in the night
