[Verse 1]
I wish you were here tonight with me
To see the northern lights
I wish you were here tonight with me
I wish I could have you by my side
Tonight, when the sky is burning
I wish I could have you by my side

[Pre-Chorus 1]
'Cause I've been down
And I've been crawling
Won't back down no more

[Chorus]
Can't you stop the lies
Falling from the skies
Down on me?
I'm still standing
Can't you roll the dice
I might be surprised
Conscience clear
I'm still standing here

[Verse 2]
Burns like a thousand stars
Though you are light years away
Burns like a thousand stars or more
[Pre-Chorus 2]
You're up there
You're always with me
Smiling down on me

[Chorus]
Can't you stop the lies
Falling from the skies
Down on me?
I'm still standing
Can't you roll the dice
I might be surprised
Conscience clear
I'm still standing here

[Bridge]
It's something sacred
Something so beautiful
Something quiet to ease the mind
When the pressure's taking me over and over

[Pre-Chorus 3]
'Cause I've been down
And I've been crawling
Pushed around
And always falling!
You're up there, you're always with me
Smiling down on me
[Chorus]
Can't you stop the lies
Falling from the skies
Down on me?
I'm still standing
Can't you roll the dice
I might be surprised
Conscience clear
I'm still standing here

Can't you stop the lies
Falling from the skies
Down on me
Still standing?
Can't you roll the dice
I might be surprised
Conscience clear
I'm still standing here
