Lyrics
Dark Metal Ballad · Baritone Growl → Clean High Range)
⸻
Intro (Sparse piano – single low notes, long decay)
Roadside…
Dust and breath…
No light…
⸻
Verse 1 (Low baritone – restrained, close-mic)
I’ve been sitting by the roadside
Longer than I know my name
Listening to footsteps pass me
Hearing mercy sound like shame
They say I’m better off quiet
They say I’ve taken enough
But darkness don’t teach patience
It only teaches how to beg for love
⸻
Pre-Chorus (Baritone rises – tension builds)
I heard You coming through the noise
Felt hope move through the ground
If You really were the Son of David
I wasn’t gonna stay shut down
⸻
Chorus (Clean vocal – wide, aching)
Jesus, Son of David
Have mercy on me
I don’t need silver
I don’t need to see who I used to be
Jesus, Son of David
I’m crying anyway
They tried to silence my faith
But I’m calling out your name
⸻
Verse 2 (Baritone with grit – drums enter, restrained)
They told me, “Be quiet, stay seated”
Said, “You don’t belong this way”
But desperation don’t wait its turn
And hope don’t ask permission to pray
I threw my cloak to the roadside
Everything I had left behind
If You were passing through this moment
I was done being blind
⸻
Pre-Chorus 2 (Half-growl → clean lift)
I didn’t shout to make a scene
I shouted ‘cause I couldn’t see
Faith don’t whisper when it’s dying
Faith screams to breathe
⸻
Chorus 2 (Full band – heavier, darker)
Jesus, Son of David
Have mercy on me
I don’t need silver
I don’t need to see who I used to be
Jesus, Son of David
I’m crying anyway
They tried to silence my faith
But I’m calling out your name
⸻
Bridge (Breakdown – growl, slow, crushing)
BE QUIET!
(pause)
No.
STAY DOWN!
(longer pause)
I cried louder.
⸻
Bridge 2 (Clean vocal – exposed, emotional peak)
You stopped when I called You
Like my voice broke through the dark
You didn’t ask for explanations
You just asked for my heart
“What do you want Me to do?”
You already knew my plea
But You let me say it out loud
So faith could finally breathe
⸻
Final Chorus (Massive swell – clean high range over crushing band)
Jesus, Son of David
You had mercy on me
You didn’t pass by my darkness
You stopped and let me see
Jesus, Son of David
I followed anyway
Once I saw the light of Your face
I never walked away
⸻
Outro (Instruments drop → piano + whisper)
Your faith…
Has healed you…
(final piano note rings)
