One day, I'll rise above the hurt
And find my way, to a brand new start
The tears will dry, the heart will mend
And I'll learn to love, to live again.

The weight that's crushing me, will slowly fade
As I find strength, in a brighter shade
The darkness will recede, as light takes hold
And I'll discover, a heart that's made of gold.

I'll learn to let go, of the ghosts of my past
And find solace, in a love that will last
The memories will linger, but they won't define
The person I'm becoming, one step at a time.

One day, I'll be okay, I'll find my way
Through the stormy nights, to a brighter day
And though it's hard, to see it now
I'll rise above, and find my way somehow.
