Dark night, bright future,
Like the phoenix from the ashes, I shall rise again.
Dark night, bright future, 
I’ve been hurt and broken but I am on the mend.
Got so much ahead of me,
The past is gonna set me free.
Learn from it and just believe
That I can touch the sky.

Everyone knows happiness,
Everybody grieves.
We all cry, we all smile,
Everybody bleeds.
Everybody has a past, things they want to hide.
There’s give, take, love, hate in each and every life.

Dark night, bright future, 
Like the phoenix from the ashes, I shall rise again.
Dark night, bright future 
I’ve been hurt and broken, but I am on the mend.
Got so much ahead of me,
What's in the past, I’ll leave it be.
Learn from it and just believe
That I can touch the sky.

Forgiveness is a magic wand, makes things disappear.
Kindness wipes away regret, hope can conquer fear.
Tenderness, a soothing balm, healing wounds and scars.
Love says we can start anew right from where we are.

Dark night, bright future
I’m on my way, I start today,
I’m gonna be all right.
Dark night, bright future
It’s darkest just before the light
And though it’s been a long dark night
Blue sky on the other side.

Dark night, bright future
Like the phoenix from the ashes, I shall rise again.
Dark night, bright future I’ve been hurt and broken 
But I am on the mend.
