[Song starts out slow when calm vocals and gradually gets stronger the guitar start calm]
[Verse 1]
I wore my solitude like armor, heavy and cold
A story of silence, a narrative already told
I’d memorized the rhythm of a hollow chest
Putting every heartbeat to a final rest
The void was a familiar room where I’d reside
With nowhere left for a broken spirit to hide
[Pre-Chorus]
I was slowly starting to believe
That love wasn’t a map I was meant to conceive
I accepted the drought, the desert, the hollow sound
Of a life where no mercy could ever be found
[Chorus]
But you came along and proved me wrong
You’re the melody in a world without a song
Now you’re what my heart yearns for, down to the bottom of my core
A resonance I’ve never felt before
Just when I was ready to give up hope
And accept my fate of always being alone
You came and showed me what love really feels like
And it’s a gravity I never want to let go
[Verse 2]
The architecture of my grief began to fall
You found the pulse beneath the garden wall
It’s a feeling that just continues to grow
In the soil where nothing was ever meant to show
Your love was the destination I was looking for
Now I don’t have to sit in the darkness no more
[Bridge]
[Guitar melody intensifies]
No more tracing the outlines of "what if"
No more standing on the edge of the cliff
You pulled me back from the silence of the deep
To a promise that my soul is finally meant to keep
The ink is fresh, the pages are turning
A different kind of fire is finally burning
[Guitar riff/solo with 8 notes]
[Chorus]
Because you came along and proved me wrong
You’re the melody in a world without a song
Now you’re what my heart yearns for, down to the bottom of my core
A resonance I’ve never felt before
Just when I was ready to give up hope
And accept my fate of always being alone
You came and showed me what love really feels like
And it’s a gravity I never want to let go
[Outro]
[ends with strong instrumental that slowly fades]
No more darkness.
I don’t have to sit in the dark no more.
Down to the core.
I finally know...
What love feels like.
