This is the moral of the story as it goes
This is the song that everybody knows
How pain and heartache lead to tortured souls
And how to dig yourself back out of that hole

This is the song that everybody sings
This is the place where everyone has been
While you’re masking the tears with your sleeve
And the heart rips at every seem

Sing the song that everybody knows
Stay true to what makes you feel safe
Let the embers die out in the warm glow
As the fire claims the last of your pain

At the start you were promised forever
Then they went and spat in your face
Now you hold the fray as it’s severed
Crimson soaking all that you gave

So sing
The song that everybody knows
Stay true to what makes you feel safe
Let the embers die out in the warm glow
As the fire claims the last of your pain

Know this to be true
That deep inside of you
Is the strength to reach for the sky

Hear the words I speak
That deep inside us, each
Is the will to survive

So sing your heart out
Rephrase every word
Of the song that everybody knows
Stay true to what makes you feel safe

Stay true
To what makes you feel safe

Let the embers die out in the warm glow
Let the fire take claim on your pain

Release your voice and sing along
The song that everybody knows
Stay true to what makes you feel sane
Let the embers die out in the warm glow
As the fire burns the remnants of pain

Sing the moral as the story goes
The song that everybody knows
The pain on weathered souls
And the strength to learn and grow
