Lyrics At Home in the Dark - Scarub , Dawn Mitschele , 9 Theory

So here we are
At home in the dark,
Force-fed pills and told we're
Ugly to still our hearts,
But this will pass.
Just as sand turns to glass
We're forged in fire to surface
Brighter and lose these masks.
Wake up, wake up, wake up!
If our eyes are closed that's how they know
To mess with us.
When powers fall
Will we heed the call?
Will we walk proud or will we
Fall to the ground and crawl?
When balance tips
And the cloth starts to rip
Fight with purpose so that our
Worth isn't in their grip.
Wake up, wake up, wake up!
If our eyes are closed that's how they know
To mess with us.
So here we are
Feeling safe in the dark,
But at what cost do we
Forget all the brightest parts?
