FANTINE

VERSE 1:

I'm looking for a miracle

But I can't see behind those tears

I know what they did

They took your innocence

You were trapped behind those doors

I know what they stole

 

PRECHORUS:

But the truth beneath the lie's at stake

It's enough to sell your soul

You can't hide the numbing pain

 

CHORUS:

Hearts cry, arms high

Will they ever reach as far as our fears?

Right here, all around

But eyes can't see when they look straight at the ground

God, I need a miracle

 

VERSE 2:

Even though you know you're safe

It's one thing to know but another to learn

That who you are is no longer a slave

Embrace your past and move forward with doubt

Ask all the questions that you're thinking aloud

I know who you are

 

PRECHORUS 2:

But the truth beneath the lie's at stake

It's enough to sell your soul

The numbing pain can change your name

 

BRIDGE:

What's her name? I think I got it wrong

It took away and started all the fighting now

Until I knew, it didn't really change my thoughts

 

But when I saw the shape of the human heart

And how far away the deviation of hers was

That's when I knew something had to change right now

 

Then I saw him coming to her light

Knocking on her door just like all the other times

He thinks she's his and I don't wana know what's next

 

Pickup a gun and load a bullet in

This one's for him but I struggle with intent

I know I should pull the trigger but I can't just now

 

It's cause I know that evil will not win

Vengeance has a place but it's not in my own hands

I'll make a difference if you show me how to start here now
