| Beat by beat and line by line
 | 
| I got a hole in my heart that once held pride
 | 
| For fifteen years I did my time
 | 
| Watch my life flash right before my eyes
 | 
| I’m fading into the unfamiliar
 | 
| I’m spending my time holding my breath
 | 
| If you’re gonna tear me down (tear me down)
 | 
| Then you better have both feet planted on the ground
 | 
| Whoa
 | 
| Open up your eyes and let the light in
 | 
| Whoa
 | 
| Take a shot in the dark
 | 
| I’ve got my ear to the ground and my eye on the prize
 | 
| Take a leap of faith without learning to fly
 | 
| It’s my time to shine
 | 
| I’m gonna light up the world
 | 
| Til I’m the last one standing
 | 
| Locked inside a room without a door
 | 
| Found a crack spreading out along the floor
 | 
| I saw bright light through the divide
 | 
| So I dug my way through to the other side
 | 
| What happened to the burning desire
 | 
| For you to pull yourself back to your feet
 | 
| If you’re gonna tear me down (tear me down)
 | 
| Then you better have both feet planted on the ground
 | 
| Whoa
 | 
| Open up your eyes and let the light in
 | 
| Whoa
 | 
| Take a shot in the dark
 | 
| I’ve got my ear to the ground and my eye on the prize
 | 
| Take a leap of faith without learning to fly
 | 
| It’s my time to shine
 | 
| I’m gonna light up the world
 | 
| Til I’m the last one standing
 | 
| All the years knowing the truth with nothing to lose
 | 
| In time, the stars will align and show you the proof
 | 
| But will it matter to you, if I ever pull through
 | 
| Save me
 | 
| Bring back to life
 | 
| If you’re gonna tear me down (tear me down)
 | 
| Then you better have both feet planted on the ground
 | 
| Whoa
 | 
| Open up your eyes and let the light in
 | 
| Whoa
 | 
| Take a shot in the dark
 | 
| I’ve got my ear to the ground and my eye on the prize
 | 
| Take a leap of faith without learning to fly
 | 
| It’s my time to shine
 | 
| I’m gonna light up the world
 | 
| Til I’m the last one standing |
