(Music starts with a gentle, pulsing synth and a simple piano melody)
(Verse 1)
I see you standing in the doorway
Watching the world go rushing by
Painting your thoughts in shades of gray
Beneath a quiet, silver sky
You hold a universe inside you
A secret that you're scared to tell
A little flicker in your soul that you
Have learned to hide away so well
(Pre-Chorus)
But there's a rhythm in your chest
A different kind of beat
It's louder than all the rest
So listen with your feet
The pavement's calling out for you
Don't be afraid to start
The only thing you have to do
Is follow your own heart
(Chorus)
So go on, let your colors burst and break the monochrome
This is your anthem, this is your song, this is your welcome home
Don't let the whispers of the doubt ever drown you out
The world is a blank page, you're the main stage, so what's it all about?
It’s about you, finally believing it's true.
(Verse 2)
They’ll tell you that you're not the type
They’ll tell you just to play it safe
To fit the mold, to buy the hype
And let your passion go to waste
But every time they build a wall
You find a window in the stone
You've got the strength to stand up tall
And walk this path you've made your own
(Pre-Chorus)
'Cause there's a rhythm in your chest
A different kind of beat
It's louder than all the rest
So listen with your feet
The road is opening for you
You've always had the spark
The only thing you have to do
Is light up your own dark
(Chorus)
So go on, let your colors burst and break the monochrome
This is your anthem, this is your song, this is your welcome home
Don't let the whispers of the doubt ever drown you out
The world is a blank page, you're the main stage, so what's it all about?
It’s about you, finally believing it's true.
(Bridge)
And every stumble, every scar
Is a lesson that you’ve earned
They show you just how far you've come
And every bridge you've had to burn
Look in the mirror, see that face?
That's the hero you've been waiting for
You were always in the right place
You just had to open up the door
(Chorus - Louder, more powerful, with ad-libs)
GO ON, let your colors burst and break the monochrome!
(Yeah!) This is your anthem, this is your song, this is your welcome home!
(Welcome home!)
Don't let the whispers of the doubt ever drown you out!
The world is a blank page, you're the main stage, so what's it all about?
It’s about YOU, finally believing it's true!
(Outro)
Finally believing...
(The sun is coming up now)
Yeah, you...
(Can you feel it in your bones?)
Go on and write your name across the sky
Go on and give yourself a reason to fly
Believe it's true...
'Cause it was always in you.
(Music fades out on a hopeful, sustained piano chord)
