Lyrics
[Verse 1] You arrived like a question I could not outrun With a silver-blue silence beneath the setting sun I had built my resolve from the pieces of goodbye Then you turned one look into a reason to try [Pre-Chorus] I was holding my breath, keeping score of the cost You said, “Choose what you want, not the fear of what’s lost” Now the pulse in my chest has a name and a flame And I’m done letting yesterday decide what I claim [Chorus] Take me where the brave hearts go Past the edge of what we know I’ve got a fire you can’t contain I’m stepping out of the old refrain If love is a risk, let it call my name If freedom is wild, I’ll run through the rain No looking back, no borrowed doubt This is the life I’m choosing now [Verse 2] There were nights when the silence wore your shape And I measured every promise I was too afraid to make But the weight of the past has been losing its hold I can feel something fearless moving through my soul [Pre-Chorus] You don’t have to swear that the road will be kind Just stand in the truth with your hand in mine Let the scars tell the story, let the old world fade We are more than the mistakes we were taught to obey [Chorus] Take me where the brave hearts go Past the edge of what we know I’ve got a fire you can’t contain I’m stepping out of the old refrain If love is a risk, let it call my name If freedom is wild, I’ll run through the rain No looking back, no borrowed doubt This is the life I’m choosing now [Bridge] I have waited long enough for permission I have given my fear too much recognition Now every door that closed made room for a choice And the truth sounds stronger when I hear my own voice [Breakdown] I choose the spark I choose the open sky I choose the heart That refused to die [Final Chorus] Take me where the brave hearts go Past the edge of what we know I’ve got a fire you can’t contain I’m stepping out of the old refrain If love is a risk, let it call my name If freedom is wild, I’ll run through the rain No looking back, no borrowed doubt This is the life I’m choosing now [Outro] This is the life I’m choosing now With every heartbeat, I’m breaking out
