[Intro]
“Lanterns flicker through the frost…”
[Verse 1]
Cracked rivers echo in the morning light,
Ghosts of warmth in the frozen white.
A sparrow weaves through the tangled pines,
Threading needles through frayed old lines.
[Chorus]
Hold me close, where the stillness breathes,
Among the roots of broken trees.
I am lost in the spaces between,
What I was and what I’ve seen.
[Verse 2]
Shadows stretch on the amber waves,
The quiet speaks, but the echo stays.
A winter sun burns the skies to gray,
Melting pieces of another day.
[Bridge]
Fingers trace the edge of the night,
A fragile seam where dark meets light.
I’ll follow the ash where the lanterns lead,
Through the snowfall, through the reeds.
[Chorus]
Hold me close, where the stillness breathes,
Among the roots of broken trees.
I am lost in the spaces between,
What I was and who I’ve been.
[Outro]
“Lanterns flicker through the frost,
Searching for all that’s been lost…”
