Lyrics
Dark Metal Ballad · Baritone Growl → Clean High Range)
⸻
Intro (Sparse piano – low notes, hollow ambience)
Thirty-eight years
Same ground
Same excuse
⸻
Verse 1 (Low baritone – restrained, close-mic)
I’ve been laying by the water
Longer than I know my name
Watching healing happen to others
While I stayed the same
Every ripple felt like mercy
Every stir looked like my chance
But someone always beat me to it
So I learned how not to stand
⸻
Pre-Chorus (Baritone rises – tension building)
You asked me if I wanted healing
Like I hadn’t prayed that prayer
But wanting something long enough
Can teach a man to settle there
⸻
Chorus (Clean vocal – wide, aching)
I said I tried, I said I waited
I said the timing wasn’t right
You didn’t argue with my reasons
You just spoke into my life
You said get up
Pick up your mat
Walk out of the place you’ve been
You didn’t wait for the water to move
You spoke — and I stood anyway
⸻
Verse 2 (Baritone with grit – drums enter slow)
That mat knew every failure
Every night I laid back down
It held my weight, it held my story
It was my proof, my ground
You told me carry what I laid on
Don’t leave it where you were
Healing doesn’t erase the past
It turns it into purpose
⸻
Pre-Chorus 2 (Half-growl → clean lift)
I stood up in the daylight
While religion shook its head
They didn’t care that I was walking
They just asked who said I could instead
⸻
Chorus 2 (Full band – heavier, darker)
I said I tried, I said I waited
I said the timing wasn’t right
You didn’t argue with my reasons
You just spoke into my life
You said get up
Pick up your mat
Walk out of the place you’ve been
You didn’t wait for the water to move
You spoke — and I stood anyway
⸻
Bridge (Breakdown – growl, slow, crushing)
DO YOU WANT TO BE HEALED?
(pause)
Then stop explaining.
GET UP.
⸻
Bridge 2 (Clean vocal – exposed, emotional peak)
Later You found me in the temple
Told me sin could still pull me back
Healing’s more than walking forward
It’s not returning to the mat
You didn’t just free my body
You warned my soul to stay awake
You didn’t just heal my sickness
You rewrote every step I’d take
⸻
Final Chorus (Massive swell – clean high range over crushing band)
I was stuck longer than I remember
I was waiting on a sign
You stepped into my hopeless place
And rewrote all of time
You said get up
Pick up your mat
Don’t live where you’ve been
You didn’t wait for the water to move
You spoke —
and I was changed anyway
⸻
Outro (Instruments drop → piano + whisper)
Get up…
Walk…
(final piano note rings)
