The night is quiet, I’m walking slow
Darkness surrounds where my hopes used to go
Tired of waiting for someone to hold
Tired of letting my heart grow cold
The stars are dim, the sky is gray
I lost my way in the endless day
But deep inside, a spark still stays
It’s never too late to start again
I don’t need the moon to glow
Don’t need the sun to make me grow
I’ve got a flame inside my soul
Warm enough to fill the void
I’ll be my own light, light up my night
Walk through the shadow, leave the dark behind
Soft and bright, my inner fire
Guide every step of my tired mind
I’ll be my own light, calm and upright
Heal every wound that’s hidden deep inside
No more blind, no more goodbye
I’ll shine alone, I’ll live my life
I’ve been hurt, I’ve been alone
Carried the weight I never shown
Breathe in slow, let the sorrow go
My fragile heart starts to unfold
The wind is soft, it touches me
Teaches me how to bravely be
I don’t need eyes to notice me
My own light sets my spirit free
Be my own light
Shine through the night
Softly, gently
I’m my own light
