🎶 The Truth We Save 🎶
(Verse 1)
The truth is hard to swallow, sticks right in my throat
A heavy, bitter pill that leaves me fighting just to float.
Tell me now, before the darkness takes its hold and keeps me low,
Will the truth be known tonight, before I go?
Or will a lie be all I carry, line after line, time after time?
Don't let me bear a falsehood, baby, into tomorrow's climb.
(Chorus)
'Cause I do, I save for me, I prepare for you,
I build this shelter strong and real, a love that sees us through.
Everything I do, I do it for you,
I do for me, I do for us, oh baby, I do it for love.
When the world outside is hollow, when the shadows start to creep,
We're the promise that we hold, the vow we try to keep.
(Verse 2)
The world moves fast, a careless spin, a hustle and a race,
And people's hearts seem empty, leaving not a trace.
A little cold, a little hollow, where the feeling used to bloom,
Their thoughts and emotions non-existent, lost inside the room.
They chase the moments, not the meaning, they spend without a care,
No one saves for dreams anymore, but darling, I swear...
(Chorus)
'Cause I do, I save for me, I prepare for you,
I build this shelter strong and real, a love that sees us through.
Everything I do, I do it for you,
I do for me, I do for us, oh baby, I do it for love.
When the world outside is hollow, when the shadows start to creep,
We're the promise that we hold, the vow we try to keep.
(Bridge)
Sometimes I feel the weight of every broken, empty sound,
Afraid that same cold stillness will someday surround
This precious thing we've built here, sheltered from the frost,
But every time I look at you, I remember what is not lost.
You are my tomorrow, you are the honest light,
The only truth worth fighting for, through the long, dark night.
(Chorus)
'Cause I do, I save for me, I prepare for you,
I build this shelter strong and real, a love that sees us through.
Everything I do, I do it for you,
I do for me, I do for us, oh baby, I do it for love.
When the world outside is hollow, when the shadows start to creep,
We're the promise that we hold, the vow we try to keep.
(Outro)
Oh, baby, I do it for love...
Yeah, I do it for us...
Don't let the lie take hold...
Just the truth we save.
