Invincible
Scarlet City Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Do you know the one you hate
Would you recognize your face
If it was staring back at you
I know what it's like to drown
To be cut whole, to be spit out
And always pushing through
Catastrophes in misery
With strength I can survive
'Cause I believe through my defeat
Is when I come alive
I'm never giving into the darkness
'Cause I am not alone
I am finding out where my heart is
With fire in my bones
Oh I've fallen down
I've struck the ground
I found the light inside my soul
I'm never giving into the darkness
'Cause I'm invincible
Silence you've been known to fear
Demons come to your appeal
Are only there for pain
The sorrows come when you give in
For that you may fall again
And never be the same
Catastrophes in misery
With strength I can survive
'Cause I believe through my defeat
Is when I come alive
I'm never giving into the darkness
'Cause I am not alone
I am finding out where my heart is
With fire in my bones
Oh I've fallen down
I've struck the ground
I found the light inside my soul
I'm never giving into the darkness
'Cause I'm invincible
Come back from where shadows play
Come back to the light of day
I'm never giving into the darkness
'Cause I am not alone
I am finding out where my heart is
With fire in my bones
Oh I've fallen down
I've struck the ground
I found the light inside my soul
I'm never giving into the darkness
'Cause I'm invincible
Come back from where shadows play
Come back to the light of day




Come back from where shadows play
Come back to the light of day
