Burning Brighter (Version 2)

Intro

(Yeah)

I'm not the same one you used to know

Verse

I learned how to light up the night in shades of gold

Walked out the darkness when your doubts turned cold

Every scar on my skin is a story I own

Not something that happened while I was gone

Pre-Chorus

So hold the match, watch it burn right through

Chorus

I'm burning brighter than anything you could ever do

Every spark within me's made of things that came true

You can't touch this fire, try to breathe in my name

But I'm already gone, leaving all your shame

Verse 2

Your ghosts are the ones who used to keep me awake at night

Now I sleep like a queen with a kingdom lit up right

I found a way to chase down every single lie

Built myself into someone you never got to know

Pre-Chorus

So hold the match, watch it burn right through

Chorus

I'm burning brighter than anything you could ever do

Every spark within me's made of things that came true

You can't touch this fire, try to breathe in my name

But I'm already gone, leaving all your shame

Bridge

Look at the embers where your shadow used to be

Watch how they rise into something wild and free

That was never yours to keep or hide away

I built a new one out of the ashes today

Chorus

I'm burning brighter than anything you could ever do

Every spark within me's made of things that came true

You can't touch this fire, try to breathe in my name

But I'm already gone, leaving all your shame
