THROUGH THE FIRE (Imagine Dragons & Sia)

darklight melody

I was born in the ashes of a broken home
Learning how to survive when I felt alone
Every scar on my skin tells a story untold
Every dream that I chased left me out in the cold

I carried the weight of a thousand goodbyes
With thunder and lightning behind my eyes
I kept my heart hidden beneath the flames
Afraid if I loved, I'd lose again

I remember the nights when the darkness won
When the stars disappeared and there was nowhere to run
I was drowning in silence, sinking so deep
Holding on to promises I couldn't keep

But somewhere inside all the wreckage and pain
A spark kept fighting through the pouring rain
A voice kept whispering: Don't let go
When my soul was too tired to carry on

And every wound became a lesson
Every tear became a breath
I found strength inside the breaking
When nobody was there

Through the fire, through the flames
Through the heartbreak and the pain
I kept running through the storm
But everything was torn

Through the fire, through the night
When I couldn't see the light
Love kept calling out my name
To make me rise again

I was falling apart
But I found I am through the fire

You came like a sunrise after endless rain
Breathing life into places buried in pain
You touched every piece of my shattered soul
And somehow made the broken home

For a moment I believed in forever again
Built a castle of hope from the ruins we've been
But destiny writes in a language unknown
And sometimes love must walk alone

The day that you left in the sky
Watching a future slowly die
I screamed at heaven, I cursed the stars
Wondering why love leaves these scars

Every photograph became a battlefield
Every memory refused to heal
I stood in the records calling your name
While standing inside the flames

But pain can turn to power and tears can become gold
The deepest nights create the dawn

Through the fire, through the flames
Through the heartbreak and the pain
I kept running through the storm

Through the fire, through the night
When I couldn't see the light
Love kept calling out my name
And made me rise again

I was falling apart
But I found who I am
Through the fire

Now star shines like a constellation
Proof that survival is its own salvation
The wounds that nearly broke my soul
Became the reason I became whole

I learned that courage isn't fearlessness
Standing tall inside the mess
Choosing to fight when your heart says run
Choosing to live when hope feels gone

For every dreamer standing on the edge
For every soul hanging by a thread
For every heart that's lost its way
This is your today

You're stronger than the voices in your head
Stronger than the battle you dread

The fire may burn, but it won't define
The warrior hidden inside
So if you hear this in your darkest hour
When you've surrendered all your power

When the weight of the world won't let you stay
And life keeps slipping through your hands
Take my voice into the light
And hold it like a faded light

Because I know what it feels like to break
To bend, to bleed, to barely wait
But the strongest hearts are forged in pain
And even shatter wings can fly again

Now standing where the ashes where
I once believed I never healed
The fire still burns, but it doesn't control
The light that's flowing inside my soul

I carry the past, but it doesn't know me
The chains are gone, I'm finally free
Every loss became a part of my story
Every scar became my glory

Through the fire, through the flames
Through the heartbreak and the pain
I kept running through the storm
Oh, everything was dark

Fire through the night
When I couldn't see the light
Love kept calling out my name
And made me rise again

I was falling apart
But I found I found who I am
I found who I am

Through the fire
The fire
I'm still standing here through the fire
Through the fire

The fire didn't destroy me
It revealed me
