[Verse 1]
Nobody told me
It would be so hard
To pull myself up out of the dark
Oh yeah I been runnin
Out every night
Blurrin up my vision like I was on a mission
Hidin from that look in my eyes
[Chorus]
It's a long way up I been standing at the bottom
And it feels like I ain't gonna make it to the top
But there's a way to find a ray of light out there if you wanna
I been gunnin down the wrong track gotta get myself back
Outta the black
[Verse 2]
Ohh I'm gonna come out swinging
Out of nowhere like you've never seen
Gonna sneak up on it, underdog it
Sometimes you gotta get mean
When those demons call me
I won't turn around
There's things I can't forget and things I regret
But they're all behind me now
I said they're all behind me now
[Chorus]
It's a long way up I been standing at the bottom
And it feels like I ain't gonna make it to the top
But there's a way to find a ray of light out there if you wanna
I been gunnin down the wrong track gotta get myself back
Outta the black
[Bridge]
The moment that
There's nothing left
To hide behind you realize
You're standing in the light
Yeah you made it out alive
[Chorus]
It's a long way up I been standing at the bottom
And it feels like I ain't gonna make it to the top
But there's a way to find a ray of light out there if you wanna
I been gunnin down the wrong track gotta get myself back
Outta the black
Nobody told me
It would be so hard
To pull myself up out of the dark
Oh yeah I been runnin
Out every night
Blurrin up my vision like I was on a mission
Hidin from that look in my eyes
[Chorus]
It's a long way up I been standing at the bottom
And it feels like I ain't gonna make it to the top
But there's a way to find a ray of light out there if you wanna
I been gunnin down the wrong track gotta get myself back
Outta the black
[Verse 2]
Ohh I'm gonna come out swinging
Out of nowhere like you've never seen
Gonna sneak up on it, underdog it
Sometimes you gotta get mean
When those demons call me
I won't turn around
There's things I can't forget and things I regret
But they're all behind me now
I said they're all behind me now
[Chorus]
It's a long way up I been standing at the bottom
And it feels like I ain't gonna make it to the top
But there's a way to find a ray of light out there if you wanna
I been gunnin down the wrong track gotta get myself back
Outta the black
[Bridge]
The moment that

To hide behind you realize
You're standing in the light
Yeah you made it out alive

It's a long way up I been standing at the bottom
And it feels like I ain't gonna make it to the top
But there's a way to find a ray of light out there if you wanna
I been gunnin down the wrong track gotta get myself back
Outta the black
