I wrote the chorus to this song about a year ago. Yesterday I made up this cool little piano thing that sort of went with it and I worked on finally writing the rest of the song. It sounds really cool and sort of different from my other songs. I'm excited to share it when I get the chance to.
Verse:
I was so afraid
Of showing my true colors
I kept it locked away
Saved it for another day
On the outside
I was perfectly fine
Though on the inside
I could hear my heart screaming
Chorus:
Hope is a beacon of light
You never let it shine
You wanna chase your dreams
But you're chasing other things
You wanna find your way
But you run from the day
And there's so much you're hiding
In the dark
Verse:
I try to break away
Tear off the chains that bound me
It's harder than it seems
Living underneath this shadow
All my fear, it
Tries to consume me
It leaves an empty space
Why do I feel so hollow
Chorus:
Hope is a beacon of light
You never let it shine
You wanna chase your dreams
But you're chasing other things
You wanna find your way
But you run from the day
And there's so much you're hiding
In the dark
Verse:
I think I realize now
It's not worth the cover
All my secrets all my talents
They should be discovered
So here it goes
Now I'm knocking down the wall
Today is a new day
And I'm gonna take it all
Chorus:
Hope is a beacon of light
You gotta let it shine
Go on and chase your dreams
Be who you wanna be
I know you'll find your way
It's time to seize the day
You're no longer hiding, oh
Hope is a beacon of light
You gotta let it shine
Go on and chase your dreams
Be who you wanna be
I know you'll find your way
It's time to seize the day
You're no longer hiding
In the dark
