[Verse]
In the darkness I was lost
Feeling all alone
Dreams shattered
Heart broken
Turned to stone
But I rose from the ashes
With a lesson to share
About unrequited love and how to handle the despair
[Verse 2]
I've known the pain of a love that's unreturned
But through it all
My inner fire burned
I won't let the hurt define who I am
I'll take those lessons and turn it into a plan
[Chorus]
Teach me how to love
Even through the pain
Give me strength to rise
Again and again
I'll find the light in the darkness
I'll learn to let go
Lessons in love
Yeah
That's how I grow
[Bridge]
In the mirror, I see
A soul that's growing strong
Every scar a testament
To how I've carried on
Through sleepless nights of sorrow
And whispers of despair
I've found a way to rise up
With strength beyond compare
[Verse 3]
The dawn now breaks with promise
After nights so cold and long
Each step a forward motion
A verse in life's grand song
I've learned to cherish whispers
Of hope in winds of change
Embracing every moment
In a world that's rearranged
[Verse 4]
I know you've faced the shadows
Your heart has known the strain
Through highs and deepest sorrows
Through every fall and gain
We rise just like the phoenix
From ashes we ascend
Each setback makes us stronger
Our spirit will transcend
[Chorus]
Teach me how to love
Even through the pain
Give me strength to rise
Again and again
We'll find the light in the darkness
We'll learn to let go
Lessons in love
Yeah
That's how we grow
