The Grey Awakening

GREY AWAKENING

Verse 1

Morning broke without a sound

Cold light spilling on battlegrounds

Empty bottles, broken prayers

Ghosts of the man who once lived here

I had drowned in my own haze

Lost the map, forgot the days

Every breath a borrowed lie

Till something whispered: not this time

Pre-Chorus

It wasn’t thunder, it wasn’t fire

Just a still small call pulling me higher

Chorus

Grey awakening — slow and true

Color bleeding through the wounds I knew

Not a blaze, but a fragile flame

I’m alive enough to feel the pain

Grey awakening — fragile, bright

Breaking open to the coming light

Verse 2

I was stone, I was a shell

Waiting for a hand to pull me from hell

But grace can start with just one breath

A quiet choice to turn from death

Steps are trembling, but they’re mine

I’m learning how to stand this time

Shadows linger, but they fade

Every dawn remakes the grey

Pre-Chorus

It wasn’t thunder, it wasn’t fire

Just a still small call pulling me higher

Chorus

Grey awakening — slow and true

Color bleeding through the wounds I knew

Not a blaze, but a fragile flame

I’m alive enough to feel the pain

Grey awakening — fragile, bright

Breaking open to the coming light

Bridge

I thought redemption would crash like a storm

But it came like a whisper, soft and warm

If mercy can move through cracks like these

Maybe it’s still coming for me

Final Chorus

Grey awakening — slow and true

Color bleeding through the wounds I knew

Not a blaze, but a fragile flame

I’m alive enough to feel the pain

Grey awakening — fragile, bright

Breaking open to the coming light
