I've been stranded, a stranger on the shore
Mainland calling, hated that I wanted more
I felt like I had less - the world was so unfair
Too afraid to swim if I had to lose a little air
I'm more of a diamond now
No longer in the rough
The winds wore me down, but now I know
That I am enough
You know, you're coming around
Learning to stand when they're keeping you down
You know, it's taken a toll
Jump in the fire to temper the soul
You know, it isn't the end
But you'll be alright
You know, you come so far
Proudly gonna wear the scars
Too many days I've spent alone inside this room
Too many nights I've wasted crying to the moon
I know that these thoughts of mine can drag me to my knees
But each new day is better than a host of memories
I know it's not over, oh,
The next storm is on its way
The winds wore me down, but now I know
That I will be okay
You know, you're coming around
Learning to stand when they're keeping you down
You know, it's taken a toll
Jump in the fire to temper the soul
You know, it isn't the end
But you'll be alright
You know, you come so far
Proudly gonna wear the scars
So if you're burning out
You need to know
There's brighter lights
Down the road
You know, you're coming around
Learning to stand when they're keeping you down
You know, it's taken a toll
Jump in the fire to temper the soul
You know, it isn't the end
But you'll be alright
You know, you come so far
Proudly gonna wear the scars
You know, you're coming around
Learning to stand when they're keeping you down
You know, it's taken a toll
Jump in the fire to temper the soul
You know, it isn't the end
But you'll be alright
You know, you come so far
Proudly gonna wear the scars
