[Verse 1]

I once woke up and I felt like rising hope

When I see the light shine down on me

I like to be in the summer breeze

Trying to keep the strength in me

[Pre-Chorus]

The light of day and dead of night

Fire and ice

[Chorus]

I knew you were gonna take me down

Oh no, you're gonna take me down

[Verse 2]

I felt alone, I was going down

In the dark, always feeling scared

It's so unfair you make me feel this way

I need to turn it all around

[Pre-Chorus]

The light of day and dead of night

Fire and ice

[Chorus]

I knew you were gonna take me down

Oh no, you're gonna take me down

I knew you were gonna take me down

Oh no, you're gonna take me down

[Bridge]

Oh, I can't take this pressure anymore

Must have hope, I can't give up

Oh, staring down at broken glass

I'm alive and I survive

[Chorus]

I knew you were gonna take me down

Oh no, you're gonna take me down

I knew you were gonna take me down

Oh no, you're gonna take me down
