[Verse 1]
Steel walls, high gates, shadows cast wide,
Underneath the iron, a heart does reside.
Echoes in the halls, whispers of the lost,
A fortress of kindness, no matter the cost.
Brick by brick, built to stand tall,
But you tear it down when you answer the call.
The world outside, rough as gravel,
Inside these walls, love unravels.
[Prechorus]
Oak doors creak, they part, they bend,
Softness blooms where the edges mend.
[Chorus]
Beyond the oak, we see it clear,
The fortress of love, casting out fear.
Extend your hand, to those in need,
A shelter of hope, planted like a seed.
[Verse 2]
Sitar hums, harp strings cry,
Theremin wails like a ghost in the sky.
Ancient rhythms, hearts entwined,
Helping hands leave no one behind.
Shields of compassion, swords of care,
Breaking the silence, repairing despair.
The zoud sings low, techno beats rise,
A refuge of solace, under vast skies.
