"Don't Come Back From Hell Empty Handed" lyrics

I walked this lonely road
Shadows danced by my side
I heard the whispers on the wind
And felt the darkness move inside
But with every battle waged
And every tear that I've shed
A hard lesson was learned
Another story that couldn't go unread

So, if you're crawling through hell
Where those fires burn bright
Make sure to grasp the flames
And fight to bring back the light

Traveling through the abyss
Lost in its endless expanse
Seeking some semblance of meaning
Trying to find that second chance
Not every lesson uplifts
And not every truth is profound
Sometimes, the answer's in the silence
In the absence of sound

So, if you're crawling through hell
Where those fires burn bright
Make sure to grasp the flames
And fight to bring back the light

The fires may sear
The journey might scar
But the spirit, unbroken
Can travel so far
With the past as your guide
Brightening the gray sky
From the shroud of the night
Run, run towards the day

As the darkness fades
And dawn takes its stand
Remember there is strength
In the power to withstand

As the darkness fades
And dawn takes its stand
Remember there is strength
In the power to withstand

Emerging from the depths
Of an endless night
Ensure you depart the darkness
Clutching the light
Your journey, my friend
Is both rugged and steep
But in valleys of sorrows
That's where the lessons run deep
Winds of change
They seldom rest
Carrying whispers
Putting your will to the test

Oh, oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh, oh

Within the labyrinth, there's light
Though the path may waver, there's light
Within the labyrinth, there's light
Though the path may waver, there's light
Within the labyrinth, there's light
Though the path may waver, there's light
Within the labyrinth, there's light
Though the path may waver, there's light
Within the labyrinth
