 <verse 1="">
 We were...
 thirteen  deep below the earth, when we saw  the fatal light.
 A  mighty blast of fire shook us all and  one to flight.
 For  those of us still able, we moved  to safer ground.
 The  air was getting thinner,  as we heard the crumbling sound.
 Heard  the crumbling sound.
  <verse 2="">
 We  made peace with our creator,  each in his own way.
 Some  wrote notes to family, while  others sat to pray.
 Time  has moved so slowly, who will  hear our plight?
 As  we sat there in the darkness, prepared  for our last fight.
 Fighting  for our life.
 
 We’re  waiting for a miracle,  to see the light  of day.
 It won’t  be long before we’re  found and we’ll  be on our way.
  <verse 3="">
 One by  one among us, would swear to  see daylight.
 Exclaiming  that they’ve found us and  soon we’d be alright.
 It finally  dawned upon me, that they truly saw  the light.
 Not the  one expected, but one to  end their fight.
 One to  end their fight.
 
 Each one  settled gently in hopes that  were untrue.
 Frozen  in expression, with thoughts  of our rescue.
 Now I  am the last one, waiting  for the light.
 My eyes  are growing heavy, I’m about to lose my  sight.
 About  to lose my sight.
  <verse 4="">
 Like the  others here around me, I believe  I see the light.
 When a  surge of air surrounds me I  feel I’ve lost the fight.
 A rush  of saviors enter and I too see  daylight.
 I’m coming  with you brothers, cause I too see  the light.
 Cause I  too see the light.
  <chorus 2x="" times="">
 We’re waiting  for a miracle, to see the  light of day.
 It won’t  be long before we’re found and  we’ll be on our way.
