Fading Ember

The fire inside me flickers low

Ashes of dreams in the afterglow

Every step feels cold and wrong

But I keep moving, I stay strong

The night may claim all I’ve known

But I fight, I fight alone

Fading ember, burning slow

Hold on to life through the undertow

Though the darkness tries to steal my light

I’ll rise again, I’ll survive the night

Broken bones and shattered pride

Still I walk with the storm outside

Every scar a lesson learned

Every fall a page that’s turned

The night may claim all I’ve known

But I fight, I fight alone

Fading ember, burning slow

Hold on to life through the undertow

Though the darkness tries to steal my light

I’ll rise again, I’ll survive the night

Even as hope begins to fade

I forge a path that I have made

Through the ashes, through the pain

I’ll find the strength to rise again

Fading ember, burning slow

Hold on to life through the undertow

Though the darkness tries to steal my light

I’ll rise again, I’ll survive the night
