Sun and stars

Silver & Gold

(Verse 1) A quiet release on a winter-cold face,

Unraveling quiet in a crowded place.

The weight in the chest finding room to unbend,

A heavy chapter coming to an end.

Then a spark in the corner, a tilt in the lip,

As gravity loses its stubborn grip.

(Chorus) Silver drops falling to loosen the rust,

Golden light rising to conquer the dust.

One shows you where the bruised places lie,

The other points up toward an open sky.

You don't get the flower without both elements,

Making the wild messy journey make sense.

(Verse 2) It’s liquid relief when the dam finally breaks,

Measuring all of the honest mistakes.

And then comes the chuckle, unexpected and sweet,

Sweeping the sorrow right off of its feet.

A sudden sunrise painted over the grey,

Chasing the fog of yesterday away.

(Bridge) They share the same face, just different weather,

Tying the sorrow and solace together.

A drop for the healing, a grin for the dawn,

Proof that the spirit keeps moving along.

(Outro) Let the tide wash, let the sun bloom,

Filling the corners of every dark room.

Silver and gold, the dark and the bright—

Walking you gently back into the light.
