When The Sky Breaks (Featuring Aubrey Vail frome Ever Ember)
by CJ Frei
Lyrics
(Verse 1 — male voice)
Another night...
Another war...
The thunder's knocking...
At my door...
Same old shadows...
Call my name...
Trying to pull me...
Back again...
I've worn these chains...
I've fought these tides...
I've drowned a thousand...
Times inside...
(Verse 2 — female voice)
I see the light...
You cannot see...
It's still alive...
Inside your heartbeat...
Every sunrise...
Starts this way...
One small spark...
Against the gray...
You don't have...
To walk alone...
I'll be beside you...
Until you're home...
(Pre-Chorus — Together)
Him:
I still hear...
The rain...
Her:
I still see...
The dawn...
Together:
Maybe hope...
Was here...
All along...
(Chorus — Together)
WHEN THE SKY BREAKS!
We'll rise together...
WHEN THE SKY BREAKS!
Nothing lasts forever...
You carried me...
When I was falling...
I'll carry you...
When darkness calls...
WHEN THE SKY BREAKS!
We'll find tomorrow...
(Verse 3 — Alternating)
Him
The waves still rise...
Her
But so do we...
Him
I found my strength...
Her
In what you couldn't see...
Together
One heart...
Two voices...
One road...
One choice...
(Pre-Chorus — Together)
The storm still comes...
The wind still cries...
But every night...
Still gives...
The sky...
(Chorus — Together)
WHEN THE SKY BREAKS!
We'll rise together...
WHEN THE SKY BREAKS!
Nothing lasts forever...
You carried me...
When I was falling...
I'll carry you...
When darkness calls...
WHEN THE SKY BREAKS!
We'll find tomorrow...
(Bridge)
Him (quietly):
What if I fall again?
Her (softly):
Then I'll help you stand.
Him:
What if the storm comes back?
Her:
We'll face it hand in hand.
Together:
The rain...
Still falls...
The tide...
Still turns...
But hope...
Always...
Returns...
(Breakdown)
Him:
Rise!
Her:
Rise!
Together:
HIGHER!
Rise!
HIGHER!
Rise!
(Final Chorus)
WHEN THE SKY BREAKS!
Every shadow fades...
WHEN THE SKY BREAKS!
Love outlives the rain...
You found me...
When I was sinking...
I'll find you...
When hope grows thin...
No storm...
No night...
No fear...
Can win...
When the sky...
Breaks...
(Outro — Together)
The thunder rolls...
The waves still climb...
But somewhere...
Beyond the clouds...
The sun...
Still shines...
We'll meet...
Where the sky...
Breaks...
