Lyric

The clock ticks low, your breathing deep

A moonlit hush, the world asleep

Your tiny hands still reach for mine

Unaware of the truth I hide in time

Your eyes hold questions I can’t face

Each answer risks your gentle grace

So I weave a sky of silver dreams

Where nothing breaks, and nothing screams

It’s not mistrust, but weight alone

A blade of truth you’re not yet grown

I’m the shadow in your sunshine, the silence in your song

Carrying you forever, even if I’m wrong

Though the truth burns bright behind my eyes

I’ll guard it ‘til the day I find the right goodbye

Your laughter rings, yet pulls the seam

Between the mask and what I’ve seen

If love means shielding you from pain

Then I’ll be the wall that takes the strain

One day you might curse the lies I’ve sown

But every thread was love, so you could still call this home

I’m the shadow in your sunshine, the silence in your song

Carrying you forever, even if I’m wrong

Though the truth burns bright behind my eyes

I’ll guard it ‘til the day I find the right goodbye
