In the shadows, on the ground
A soul is crawling, without a sound
With every inch, the struggle's real
A human heart, too numb to feel
Oh, the misery, it's plain to see
A life in chains, yearning to be free
Crawling, falling, but still he tries
Underneath the open skies
Through the dirt, his fingers bleed
A testament to unspoken need
Eyes are weary, but forward gaze
In search of light, through the haze
Oh, the misery, it's plain to see
A life in chains, yearning to be free
Crawling, falling, but still he tries
Underneath the open skies
Through the dirt, his fingers bleed
A testament to unspoken need
Eyes are weary, but forward gaze
In search of light, through the haze
Oh, the misery, it's plain to see
A life in chains, yearning to be free
Crawling, falling, but still he tries
Underneath the open skies
Oh, the misery, it's plain to see
A life in chains, yearning to be free
Crawling, falling, but still he tries
Underneath the open skies
So let him crawl, let him fight
For every inch towards the light
In his journey, let there be
A spark of hope, for you and me
But even the fallen can rise again
With strength unknown, beyond the pain
From the earth, he'll find his way
To stand tall, come what may
So let him crawl, let him fight
For every inch towards the light
In his journey, let there be
A spark of hope, for you and me
