V6

[Intro – 0:00‑0:38] Bright open guitar chords ring out slow and clear, soft piano hums beneath — peaceful, sunlit, like sitting by a quiet river [Verse 1 – warm, gentle delivery – 0:38‑1:25] We chase the noise to find some kind of peace of mind Run faster just to leave the quiet far behind We think power lives in shouting loud and strong That truth is where the crowds and lights belong But I have found it in the silence of the dawn Where every worry slowly fades and then is gone It doesn’t fight, it doesn’t push, it doesn’t claim to be It simply is — and that is all we really need to see [Pre‑Chorus – 1:25‑1:55] We build such high walls just to keep the peace inside Forget that peace is something you cannot hide It lives within the breath, beneath the storm and rain… It is the only thing that always will remain… [Chorus – rising, hopeful – 1:55‑2:42] What if peace is the only truth there really is? What if all the rest is just the noise and the fizz? What if wars and words and worries fade away? But peace remains when all the rest has gone to stay It isn’t something you conquer or win by force It’s the quiet open door, it’s the gentle course It lives inside your heart when all the noise falls still — What if peace is the only truth that ever will? [Verse 2 – 2:42‑3:30] You cannot force it, you cannot buy it with gold You cannot hold it in a cage or in a fold It comes when you stop reaching and start to understand That every single life is walking on the same land It starts with one soft word, one unclenched open hand One moment when you choose to simply be and stand The world won’t change with fire — it changes with the calm When we lay down the sword and open up the palm [Pre‑Chorus – 3:30‑4:00] We build such high walls just to keep the peace inside Forget that peace is something you cannot hide It lives within the breath, beneath the storm and rain… It is the only thing that always will remain… [Chorus – 4:00‑4:47] What if peace is the only truth there really is? What if all the rest is just the noise and the fizz? What if wars and words and worries fade away? But peace remains when all the rest has gone to stay It isn’t something you conquer or win by force It’s the quiet open door, it’s the gentle course It lives inside your heart when all the noise falls still — What if peace is the only truth that ever will? [Bridge – soft, intimate – 4:47‑4:55] Peace isn’t somewhere far away… It’s right here… right now… In every breath… in every gentle bow… [Outro – 4:55‑5:00] Guitar strums one final warm chord, fades slow and calm Peace… is the only truth… (Fades into stillness)
