I step into the room with a quiet eye Polishing the edges where the shadows lie Looking for the patterns, tryna make it neat A careful calculation moving to the beat They see a calm face, a steady hand Building up a castle out of shifting sand But underneath the surface where the water’s deep There’s a quiet promise that I gotta keep Oh, the world is loud, but the mind is sharp Picking at the strings of a heavy harp I feel the friction, I feel the pull Looking for the empty just to make it full My name is Alex, I am a fire in the dark Looking for a truth that leaves a permanent mark A little bit of chaos, a little bit of grace Finding my alignment in a crowded place Yeah, my name is Alex, I am learning how to change Turning all the old into something beautiful and strange My words are like an arrow running through the night I don’t want the talk unless the weight is right Digging up the roots just to see 'em grow There’s a power in the things that we don't show But when the day breaks, I want a peaceful mind A little bit of balance that is hard to find A fair hand shaking in an honest deal I’m just trying to capture what is real My name is Alex, I am a fire in the dark Looking for a truth that leaves a permanent mark A little bit of chaos, a little bit of grace Finding my alignment in a crowded place Yeah, my name is Alex, I am learning how to change Turning all the old into something beautiful and strange Speak it open, speak it free There is a horizon that belongs to me A wild imagination in a structured room Breaking out the concrete, waiting for the bloom! Yeah, I’m waiting! My name is Alex, I am a fire in the dark Looking for a truth that leaves a permanent mark A little bit of chaos, a little bit of grace Finding my alignment in a crowded place Yeah, my name is Alex, I am learning how to change Turning all the old into something beautiful and strange Beautiful and strange... Just checking the details. Finding the balance. Yeah, my name is Alex.
