Lyrics

English

The road is longer than I knew
The sky is wider, the night is blue
My steps are slower, my heart is loud
But I am taller than the crowd

(Look at me now!)
The wind is colder, the hill is steep
But I am braver in my sleep

I'm stronger than yesterday
Better than I was, I found a way
The fear is smaller, the light is near
I'm louder than the voice of fear
Stronger than yesterday...

The sea is darker than the stone
The path is harder walked alone
But hope is greater than the pain
And I am warmer in the rain

More beautiful than any dream
More golden than the morning beam
The worse is over, the best is new
I'm closer than I was to you

Stronger. Braver. Better. Free.
Than yesterday, a newer me.

Stronger than yesterday.

Türkçe

Yol bildiğimden daha uzun
Gökyüzü daha geniş, gece mavi
Adımlarım daha yavaş, kalbim gürültülü
Ama kalabalıktan daha uzunum

(Şimdi bana bak!)
Rüzgâr daha soğuk, tepe dik
Ama uykumda daha cesurum

Dünden daha güçlüyüm
Eskisinden daha iyi, bir yol buldum
Korku daha küçük, ışık yakın
Korkunun sesinden daha gürültülüyüm
Dünden daha güçlü...

Deniz taştan daha karanlık
Yol yalnız yürününce daha zor
Ama umut acıdan daha büyük
Ve ben yağmurda daha sıcağım

Herhangi bir hayalden daha güzel
Sabah ışığından daha altın
Kötü olan geçti, en iyisi yeni
Sana eskisinden daha yakınım

Daha güçlü. Daha cesur. Daha iyi. Özgür.
Dünden, daha yeni bir ben.

Dünden daha güçlü.
