The lights go out all around me One last candle to keep out the night And then the darkness surrounds me I know I'm alive But I feel like I died And all that's left is to accept that it's over My dreams ran like sand through the fists that I made I try to keep warm but I just grow colder I feel like I'm slipping away
After all this has passed I still will remain After I've cried my last There'll be beauty from pain Though it won't be today Someday I'll hope again And there'll be beauty from pain You will bring beauty from my pain
My whole world is the pain inside me The best I can do is just get through the day When life before is only a memory I wonder why God lets me walk through this place And though I can't understand why this happened I know that I will when I look back someday And see how you've brought beauty from ashes And made me as gold purified through these flames
After all this has passed I still will remain After I've cried my last There'll be beauty from pain Though it won't be today Someday I'll hope again And there'll be beauty from pain You will bring beauty from my pain
Here I am at the end of me Trying to hold to what I can't see I forgot how to hope This night's been so long I cling to your promise There will be a dawn
After all this has passed I still will remain After I've cried my last There'll be beauty from pain Though it won't be today Someday I'll hope again And there'll be beauty from pain You will bring beauty from my pain
