[Verse 1]
There's a light on, over this town
It could use just a little more
Somethin' to guide it on the journey
To a waitin' factory floor

[Pre-Chorus]
And those mouths been sleepin'
There was a time their smiles were near

[Chorus]
On and on, you look for something more
Lose your will at every closin' door
Down, down, into your darkest blue
Rise up until you shine through

[Verse 2]
We can see this new day dawnin'
Can it chance to hold a while?
'Cause this world is bled and empty
And has never felt so tired

[Pre-Chorus]
Now we can see the reason
To never give up on dreamin', now
[Chorus]
On and on, you look for something more
Lose your will at every closin' door
Down, down, into your darkest blue
Rise up until you're shinin' through

[Post-Chorus]
When you live on the edge
With your hands in the fire
And it keeps you down
Could you keep on tryin'?
When you work till you fall
And it's never enough
But you don't back down
And you don't give up

[Verse 3]
If there's a light on, over your town
I hope it burns for you
'Cause your brand new day is dawnin'
And I know you'll see it through

[Pre-Chorus]
Now you can see the reason
Never give up on dreamin', now
[Chorus]
On and on, you look for something more
Lose your will at every closin' door
Down, down, into your darkest blue
Rise up until you're shinin' through

[Post-Chorus]
When you live on the edge
With your hands in the fire
And it keeps you down
Could you keep on tryin'?
When you work till you fall
And it's never enough
But you don't back down
And you don't give up
