歌詞

You step through the dust and the dazzle

Same boots, different bruises

The day keeps its teeth in the silence

Still your name stays uncruised

A thread through the storm of the small things

A flame in the middle of stone

Even when the whole world goes shifting

Your heart keeps a home

And the hours can bend

And the metal can bend

But the center still sings

Through the break and the spend

If the ceiling comes low

Let your shadow stand tall

There is room in the crack

For a soul to unroll

Keep that silver thread

Keep that silver thread

Through the sweet and the hard

Through the restless head

Keep that silver thread

Keep that silver thread

You were made for the bend

And the pull and the spread

At the edge of the table, the ledger

At the edge of the heart, the spark

Trade the fear for a cleaner horizon

Trade the crack for a mark

In the garden of calls and cautions

Where the hungry clocks pound

Let the love walk light on the threshold

Let the good stay around

When the long hours climb

And the worry gets loud

Take the small bright signs

From the low and the proud

A kind word can bloom

In the harshest terrain

A shared little grace

Can rename the rain

Keep that silver thread

Keep that silver thread

Through the sweet and the hard

Through the restless head

Keep that silver thread

Keep that silver thread

You were made for the bend

And the pull and the spread

For the young with the sparks in their pockets

For the ones with the weight in their bones

For the hands in the dusk of the scaffold

For the hearts in the long road zones

There is honor in careful footsteps

There is gold in the patient spin

There is mercy in choosing the softer

Way through where you've been

When the dark ones come calling

And the easy lies shine

Let the true thing stand taller

Let the thin thread align

No crown on the worry

No cage on the skin

Just a voice saying stay

And a future within

Keep that silver thread

Keep that silver thread

Through the sweet and the hard

Through the restless head

Keep that silver thread

Keep that silver thread

You were made for the bend

And the pull and the spread

Keep that silver thread

Keep that silver thread

For the love and the labor

For the nights and the bread

Keep that silver thread

Keep that silver thread

Every age, every step

Let it lead you ahead
