New Light Rising

Intro

Verse

Used to wait on someone's word

To tell us when the time was right

Used to think the brightest stars

Were the only ones allowed to shine

But the sky don't need permission

Every light can find its place

And the ones who've burned forever

Still gotta move and make some space

Pre-Chorus

Can you feel it building

Something breaking into view

Can you feel it building

There's a sky wide enough for me and you

Chorus

New light, rising

You can't hold back what's coming

New light, rising

Every star gets its moment

Old light fades, but the story goes on

New light carries the morning

New light, rising

We were made for the moment

Instrumental

Verse

Some lights dim and some begin

That's the way the heavens move

Nobody owns the open sky

No one gets to choose for you

We don't need an invitation

We don't need a famous name

You were never made to guard it

And the dark don't stay the same

Pre-Chorus

Can you feel it building

Something breaking into view

Can you feel it building

There's a sky wide enough for me and you

Chorus

New light, rising

You can't hold back what's coming

New light, rising

Every star gets its moment

Old light fades, but the story goes on

New light carries the morning

New light, rising

We were made for the moment

Break

Build

Verse

They can dim the room but not the sun

They can lock the door, we'll find a window

Every voice that's told to wait

Becomes the voice that leads tomorrow

We were never asking, really

We were only being kind

Now the room is getting brighter

And there's nothing left to hide

Bridge

Watch the old lights holding tighter

While the new ones learn to fly

Funny how the fading stars

Talk the loudest in the sky

Let the dark ones talk

We don't fade, we don't fall

We just rise

Drop

Chorus

New light, rising

You can't hold back what's coming

New light, rising

Every star gets its moment

Old light fades, but the story goes on

New light carries the morning

New light, rising

We were made for the moment

New light, rising

New light, carrying on

Outro

Let the old light go

There's room enough for every soul to shine

Let the old light go

We were always meant to glow
