Light concept v18 (alt-rock)

[(c) 2026 JB Brown] [Intro] [disembodied/spoken] A dark glass A dark glass … Shaded perception [enter guitars, distorted] [Verse 1] What is missing? I'm imagining it. This same old room Full of shadows. I let the shadow decide What the room was made of I measured all I couldn't see By what I was afraid of [Pre-Chorus 1] I sense something moving Right at the edge of me A flicker, a figment. A seam all I see [Chorus] Through the glass I missed the truth Through the glass Barely saw through The Light wasn’t missing I was looking through something [Verse 2] I can’t see it, therefore it isn’t there That was the rule I wore And every time the world got bright I shut the door It was there all along, Showing it all. Oh heck, I was headstrong! Afraid the truth would make me fall. [Pre-Chorus 2] Something’s wrong with what I’m seeing The room hasn’t changed at all But something in me is breaking And I don’t know what comes after [Chorus] Through the glass I missed the truth Through the glass Barely saw through The Light wasn’t missing I was looking through something [Bridge] [stripped back, minimal, sparse] Perception fails me I need an upgrade Here in the same room I’m starting to see [spoken] Wholly exposed Wholly known Holy befriended Never alone [break] [Final Chorus] Through the glass I missed the truth Through the glass Barely saw through The Light wasn’t missing I was looking through something Through the glass It was there all along Through the glass I was the one who was wrong The Light wasn’t missing I was looking through something (through the glass) (through the glass) (through the glass) [peaceful resolution. long fade out]
