Weight of Truth

Verse

I’ve known shadows longer than the sun

Familiar faces, but all the love is gone

Years built walls I thought were mine

Then you came and blurred the lines

Pre-Chorus

Time is a liar, it measures nothing

Only what stands when all is crushing

Chorus:

You cut through the echoes of a lifetime spent

Your truth is a blade I didn’t expect

Better than forever, better than fear

Character speaks, and the lies disappear

I’ve walked through storms that never broke me

But your light’s the first that woke me

Better than forever, better than pain

I’ll follow the heart that won’t betray

Verse 2

I’ve clung to ghosts that whispered home

Comfort in chains I thought were my own

Your hands, they break the old decay

Teach my heart a new way to stay

Pre-Chorus:

Time is a liar, it measures nothing

Only what stands when all is crushing

Chorus

You cut through the echoes of a lifetime spent

Your truth is a blade I didn’t expect

Better than forever, better than fear

Character speaks, and the lies disappear

I’ve walked through storms that never broke me

But your light’s the first that woke me

Better than forever, better than pain

I’ll follow the heart that won’t betray

Bridge:

The years are ashes, the past a stain

But you hold light in the pouring rain

No promises, no empty binds

Just the weight of truth that frees my mind

Chorus/Outro:

You cut through the echoes of a lifetime spent

Your truth is a blade I didn’t expect

Better than forever, better than fear

Character speaks, and the lies disappear

I’ve walked through storms that never broke me

But your light’s the first that woke me

Better than forever, better than pain

I’ll follow the heart that won’t betray

I’ll follow the heart that won’t betray
