Verse 1
Hearts still break even if they're strong
We've been torn apart far too long
Remember we’re all made from the same cloth
Held to earth by gravity's law

Verse 2
We're just frail children reaching out
Riddled by all our countless doubts
We've learned all our parts far too well
Can we wake from this constant spell

Chorus
I'll pick you up and carry you
Don’t we believe you're worth the rescue
It takes us all to fight this fight
This very reason is our light

Verse 3
How many years will this go on
Can the night hold back the dawn
Is there an answer to this song
It was in our hearts all along

Chorus
I'll pick you up and carry you
Don’t we believe that you're worth the rescue
It takes us all to fight this fight
This very reason is our light

Bridge
We'll bear each other's scars
Take to the night like shooting stars
Stripped of our ego's lie
Let this be our standing reply

Chorus
I'll pick you up and carry you
Don’t we believe you're worth the rescue
It takes us all to fight this fight
This very reason is our light

This very reason is our light
