Lyric

Somewhere far away, or maybe right beside my heart

Poison spreads from every little thing that tears the soul apart

Rows of words parade across the screen, declaring misery

Steps I take to read between the lines—

Lost again before the maze begins

Voices rising, shouting out the lies for all to see

In the town next door they pray in silence

In a distant land they clap their hands

Still the sunrise comes to everyone

The same across the horizon

The key that opens happiness

Is hidden in the arms of sorrow

Every age and every time

It’s buried deeper than tomorrow

In the town next door they pray in silence

In another land they clap their hands

Still the sunrise comes to everyone

The same across the horizon

Barefoot on the ground, I leave my trace in morning dust

Gathering the smallest things that prove a single act of trust

Honest hearts salute the dawn—

A quiet cry becomes a flame

Swelling full and then collapsing

Where the “ordinary” gathers

Only truth remains

Touch not what belongs to others

Hold on tight to every seat

Still a brighter laughing future

Comes to those who choose to breathe

The joy you feel within your chest

The path that leads you there someday

Maybe closer than your happiness—

Just one heartbeat away
