Your story won't always
Make sense
To those who prefer relays
But Yours
Is no trivial competition
Waging war
With one mortal decision
Choosing life
Does not dispel comparisons
Only confirms
Your category is marathons

Cause I believe we will survive
That this pain has a purpose
I believe we will rise alive
I believe it will be worth it
Cause I believe we will arrive
A destination of tranquility
I believe we will arrive
Grateful for our history
Cause I believe we will thrive
Seeds begin in the dark
I believe we will thrive
Our past becomes the spark

Cause what we'll be is stunning
Pale stripes and sore throats
What we'll be is stunning
Astounding as the poetry we wrote
Cause what we'll be is a beacon
To shine into the dark
What we'll be is a beacon
Sharing our own marks
Cause what we'll be is proof
We are no statistical rate
What we'll be is proof
Night is not a constant state

Cause we have hope
Candles exist
We have hope
An end to this abyss
Cause we have dreams
Of something more
We have dreams
Of winning this war

Cause we're the remains
Crawling in the dark
We're the remains
Of priceless broken art
Cause we're the resistant
Sparring with doubt
We're the resistant
Finding our route

Cause we've been judged
Scars that are fresh
We've been judged
Faded stencils on our flesh
Cause we've been tested
Journey has been long
We've been tested
Now watch us fight on

Cause we're not the lucky ones
With flower beds
We're not the lucky ones
Demons in our heads
Cause we're not the fortunate
Lying on silken sheets
We're not the fortunate
Never learned to sleep

Give me the sky
And I will soar
Among the mighty clouds
Grant me the wind
And I will fly
Beneath the radiant sun
Dare me to dance
And I will learn
Upon a golden lit stage
Lend me an ocean
And I will sail
Farther than the tides
Make me a promise
And I will trust
Grasping to it forever
Bring me a melody
And I will write
Stringing lyrics by starlight
Join me in life
And we will laugh
Finding joy side by side
