After All
Somewhere, out of the nothingness, out of the pain, there is gain, there is hope in this.
Somehow, all the brokenness, every scar, bandaged heart, is awaking from the dark and I see...
there is light after all in me.
When the doors have all slammed in my face
and the rain is pouring down,
As the tallest towers and jagged cliffs
mock me as I fall to the ground again...
I look to the sky with the last of my breath
spend all my wishes at once for one final chance
just to know there's something left for me
a glimmer of love to come and set this imprisoned soul free...
After all, a hero's what I really need.
Answer, can you change the tides of fate? don't play the game, don't take blame, life is what we make.
Believe, that time is mending, each fallen star, from the start, where we are's not where we'll be... for after all there's destiny.

a glimmer of love to come and set this imprisoned soul free...
After all, a hero's what I really need.
Oh, oh, after all... this is what i believe:
hope is my reality
love is my fantasy
and I'm not letting go, no...
After all, I've found all that i need.
After all, after all... this is really me.
