Shadows of the Past

[Verse] In the silence of the night, she lies awake Frightened by the shadows on the wall (on the wall) She had to grow up 'fore she was ready to In the dim moonlight, she took the fall [Verse 2] But now she's breaking free, leaving it all behind Shaking off the weight of the past (of the past) With every step she takes, a new strength she finds In the moon's soft glow, she's free at last (ooh yeah) [Chorus] Oh, she's dancing in the light, no more shadows on the wall Rising like a phoenix, she will never fall She's overcome the pain, she's found her own way In the moon's embrace, she's found her place [Verse 3] She's been through so much But she's still standing tall Fought her battles and she gave it her all (her all) The scars on her heart They tell a story nobody knew She's free and won't let it define her As she starts her life anew (brand new) [Chorus] Oh, she's dancing in the light, no more shadows on the wall Rising like a phoenix, she will never fall She's overcome the pain, she's found her own way In the moon's embrace, she's found her place [Verse 4] The tears she cried Turned into fuel for her fire She's chasin' dreams Reaching higher and higher No longer bound by the chains of her past She's brokin' free Gonna make this moment last [Chorus] Oh, she's dancing in the light, no more shadows on the wall Rising like a phoenix, she will never fall She's overcome the pain, she's found her own way In the moon's embrace, she's found her place [Chorus] Oh, she's dancing in the light, no more shadows on the wall Rising like a phoenix, she will never fall She's overcome the pain, she's found her own way In the moon's embrace, she's found her place [Hook] She's a survivor [Outro]
