[Intro]
As the cold winds whisper, shadows start to grow
Sunset paints the sky, but I still got to go
Chainsaw hums alive, energy in my hand
Building fires, kindling dreams, this is my land
[Verse 1]
Battery charged, I start the day under bleak gray skies
Woodpile rising, in the tent, where my hope lies
Burning stove hungry, feeding flames to chase the night away
Every crackle, every spark, I fight to stay
[Pre-Chorus]
Feet dragging, pains in my back, but I won't give in
Walking cane my new partner, through the old and thin
Saving dimes for the big day, when my story takes flight
Putting my soul into my fight, into my night
[Chorus]
Lighting my world with an old oil lamp’s gentle glow
Illuminating fears, letting the darkness go
Story of suffering, pain woven into my song
Healing comes softly, where I belong
[Verse 2]
Antique glow flickers, shadows dance on the wall
Tent becomes my sanctuary, I remember it all
Laying down my burden, with every spark I ignite
Nighttime whispers comfort, soft and light
[Pre-Chorus]
Bones aching, but my spirit rises from the deep
In the glow of my lamp, I find the strength to sleep
Every moment, every scar, tells of battles won
As new dawn approaches, I carry on
[Chorus]
Lighting my world with an old oil lamp’s gentle glow
Illuminating fears, letting the darkness go
Story of suffering, pain woven into my song
Healing comes softly, where I belong
[Bridge]
From the ashes of the past, hope begins to bloom
In the flickering light, I shed my doom
Each stroke, each stride, brings a brand new light
A hero in my fight, into the night
[Outro]
Now the fire’s burning bright, shadows fade away
My story’s only beginning, I’ll face the day
With the lamp as my guide, through pain I will grow
In the soft glow of hope, I’ll always show
