[Verse 1]
I've been searching for myself
A shell of what there once was
It's been so long
So long since I have felt alive
But God, I try to live and not just survive

[Pre-Chorus]
Wash the darkness from our lives
Erase the plague from inside our minds

[Chorus]
We lost our way but not our hope
Searching for a way to come back home
Wash the darkness, erase the plague
This is the war we've always known

[Verse 2]
Where's the love gone?
Why has my heart hidden?
Concealed in the dark
Why am I so numb?
Where did this come from?
When will the healing seep in?

[Chorus]
We lost our way but not our hope
Searching for a way to come back home
Wash the darkness, erase the plague
This is the war we've always known
[Refrain]
Wash the darkness from our lives
Erase the plague from inside our minds

[Bridge]
Against the wall, we give it all
Against the wall, we refuse to fall
We give it all

[Outro]
Don't give up on me
Believe in yourself, believe in hope
I won't give up on you
My hands around your neck to untie the rope
Don't give up on me
Remember who you were, realize how far you've come
I won't give up on you
I won't give up
I won't give up on you
