V5.5

Verse 1
I don't write to please the crowd,
Or paint my name across the sky,
I write to hear the silent hearts
That hide their storms and wonder why.
I send my words like lantern flames
Across the valleys cold and wide,
Searching for the ones who walk
With lonely questions deep inside.

Pre-Chorus
If my voice can reach your darkness,
If my song can light the way,
Then every line I've ever written
Found a reason here to stay.

Chorus
I write sympathy in rivers,
Flowing from the mountain snow,
Carrying warmth to tired travelers
Who've forgotten where to go.
They can climb and they can find me,
Or remain where comfort grows,
But somewhere lost souls keep searching
For a tree that gives them hope.

Verse 2
I have seen the hurried cities,
Chasing gold from dawn till night,
Building walls around their sorrows
While pretending all is right.
Yet beneath the noise and thunder
There are hearts that still believe,
That a single honest melody
Can give a wounded soul reprieve.

Pre-Chorus
Every road was made for walking,
Every star was made to shine,
Every soul that seeks a shelter
Will one day cross another sign.

Bridge
I am not the destination,
Just a shadow on the trail,
A voice beneath the evening wind,
A story carried by the gale.
If my branches hold a moment
Of relief from fear and pain,
Then let the seasons take my leaves—
The roots will bloom again.

Final Chorus
I write sympathy in rivers,
Flowing from the mountain snow,
For the wanderers and dreamers
Who still dare to let life grow.
They can climb and they can find me,
Past the cliffs and winding roads,
For somewhere lost souls keep searching
For a tree with fruit and hope.

Outro
I don't write to please the people,
I write because the heart still knows...
Somewhere beyond the mountain silence,
A thirsty soul is coming home.
