Lyrics:

Once I was light, now I’m ash in the storm  
My heart was whole, now it’s tattered and worn  
Why do I linger on?  
Why do I linger on?

Wandered through dreams, now I’m caught in the frost  
Fell from the skies, every hope has been lost  
Just a whisper in the static  
Why do I linger on?

Fraying, fading, torn by the void  
Hunting for a spark that the dark has destroyed  

Cos I, I  
Can’t touch the warmth of dawn  
But I’ll claw through the dark  
Can’t touch the warmth of dawn  
But one day, I’ll spark  
One day, I’ll spark  

Mm, mm, ah
Mm, mm, mm  

When did it die? All the fire I owned  
Stranded in cold, with no path to be shown  
No soul to hear my calling  
Why do I linger on?

Sinking through time, with no echo to save  
I’m still here  

Cos I, I  
Can’t touch the warmth of dawn  
But I’ll claw through the dark  
Can’t touch the warmth of dawn  
But one day, I’ll spark  
One day, I’ll glow

Nameless I roam, through a world that’s gone gray  
Not what I’ve been, but what I’ll forge someday  
Something I’m strive for  
Something I’m forged for  
Something I’m forged for

Why Do I Linger On
