Scott Stapp - Higher Power

Forty feet down falling head first off the edge
(Without an angel)
Waking up to the sound of the living dead
(Alone with the devil)

Life had forsaken me
Left me alone to bleed
I was ready to meet my maker
(The day I died was the day I came back to life)

Now I'm alive, I walked through fire
I survived, I'm burning brighter
Standing on top of the world
I ain't coming down
I'm alive, I've become the fire
Rising high, I'm burning brighter
The day I climbed out through my darkest hour
I found my higher power

Crawling through hell
Hear the demons screaming in my head
(Where is your God now?)
Pulling out nails from the coffin they call my bed
(Digging my grave out)

Life had forsaken me
Left me alone to bleed
I was ready to meet my maker

Now I'm alive, I walked through fire
I survived, I'm burning brighter
Standing on top of the world
I ain't coming down
I'm alive, I've become the fire
Rising high, I'm burning brighter
The day I climbed out through my darkest hour
I found my higher power

It was the death of me
That made heaven speak
Heard the angels calling out my name
It was a eulogy
For the part of me
That will never, ever be the same
It took a fall to rise
To open blinded eyes
The day I died was the day I came back to life

Now I'm alive, I walked through fire
I survived, I'm burning brighter
Standing on top of the world
I ain't coming down
I'm alive, I've become the fire
Rising high, I'm burning brighter
The day I climbed out through my darkest hour
I found my higher power

The day I climbed out through my darkest hour
I found my higher power

The day I climbed out through my darkest hour
I found my higher power
