My heart is in command
No longer in the dark
My castle in the sand
Is now made of stone and rock
The memory and you
The things I’ve been through
And everything I do
We start believing by the minute
Now that I’m in it, now that I’m it
I won’t break, I won’t break, yeah
We’ve come through emotions
From the deepest of oceans
And straight from my heart
I won’t give into the motion
Old sorrow and broken dreams
Are soaring through the sky, oh
I’ve flown against the winds
With freedom in their eyes
I won’t break, I won’t break
We’ve come through emotions
From the deepest of oceans
Coming straight from my heart
I won’t give into the motion
‘Cause even in the darkness
‘Cause even at the darkest night
‘Cause even in the darkness, I can see a light
‘Cause even in the darkness
(I won’t break)
‘Cause even in the darkness
‘Cause even at the darkest night
‘Cause even in the darkness, I can see a light
(I won’t break)
‘Cause even in the darkness
My heart is in command
No longer in the dark
(I won’t break)
‘Cause even in the darkness
‘Cause even at the darkest night
‘Cause even in the darkness
My heart is in command
No longer in the dark
