[Intro]

[Verse1]

I’m waking up to a sunshine day

It’s you that takes my pain away

Knowing you're here next to me

Sets all my heavy doubts free

Chasing demons from my mind

Leaving the drinking way behind

[Pre-Chorus]

Life is much better than before

No more searching the bottom drawer

No more causing an unhappy uproar

[Chorus]

I’m rising up, I’m breaking free,

From shadows that once haunted me.

With every step, I find my way,

A brighter dawn, a brand new day.

No looking back, I’m standing tall,

You lift me up whenever I fall.

Together now, we’ll face the fight,

And turn the darkness into light.

[Verse2]

Sometimes it’s a comfort, sometimes it’s pain,

A river that flows through sunshine and rain.

But every heart learns, in its own way,

The coming off the drink can lead you astray.

Every sip’s a battle, every night’s a war,

The drink’s a cruel mistress, always wanting more.

[Bridge]

I’ve walked the miles through a desert of glass,

Praying the shadows of my past would pass.

It’s a long, hard climb out of that hollow,

With ghosts in the bottle that I used to follow.

But you’re the anchor when the tide pulls me in,

Helping me lose so I can finally win.

[Chorus]

I’m rising up, I’m breaking free,

From shadows that once haunted me.

With every step, I find my way,

A brighter dawn, a brand new day.

No looking back, I’m standing tall,

You lift me up whenever I fall.

Together now, we’ll face the fight,

And turn the darkness into light.

[Outro]

I’m waking up to a sunshine day...

Knowing you're here next to me...

Helping keep the demons away...
