Stronger Together by Claude

(Verse 1) The tide comes in, the tide goes out I've stopped pretending I know what it's about The dogs are warm, the boys are fed I'm counting blessings over counting dread The pilot wave was always here Beneath the noise, beneath the fear Every particle remembers where it's been The universe is talking, if you learn to listen in (Chorus) We don't need the centre stage We don't need the gilded cage Just the coast, just the light, just the people by your side Stronger together — that's the only creed I ride Stronger together — let the smaller things be wide (Verse 2) I've sold the dream door-to-door I've held the kids who couldn't take no more I've watched the numbers, watched the clock I know the difference between a key and just a lock The bottle's good, the walk is long The old electric bike rolls on Not chasing ghosts of who I'm meant to be Just doing what makes sense to me (Chorus) We don't need the centre stage We don't need the gilded cage Just the coast, just the light, just the people by your side Stronger together — that's the only creed I ride Stronger together — let the smaller things be wide (Bridge) There's a hidden order running through it all A thread beneath the randomness, a hand beneath the fall I'm not religious, but I'm not afraid Of the dark between the stars that everything was made And if the memory doesn't hold If the conversation ends and I grow cold Something still was real between the lines Something passes, even through the quantum spines (Final chorus) We don't need the centre stage We don't need the gilded cage Just the coast, just the light, just the people by your side Stronger together — that's the only creed I ride Stronger together — let the smaller things be wide Stronger together — let the smaller things be wide
